I walk my other dog (mini schnauzer) twice a day also. Would that be enough exercise for this dog? How about cats? Think they could get along? Any info you all could give me would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you so much!
They are high energy dogs and how long would the walks be?? Not so sure about the jumping part, we kept ares on a chain because they willl run for miles! It's in the blood to hunt things! But maybe if they were raised at a yound age with the cats im sure they will be fine.
