Although most BCs are rather hyper, my grandmother has one and he is somewhat lazy. He has the farm to roam which he does--but at a walk or SLOW trot! lol Chester takes his investigations serious! Though he keeps himself at a slower pace, he is very very curious and would no-doubt get bored very easily! While, I'm sure there are many BCs who are house dogs, Chester is MISERABLE inside. Therefore, he spends most nights outside asleep on the front porch.
