Are you looking for a fast-paced high energy dog that will keep you active? If so, here is a list of the most energetic dog breeds that will keep you and your kids on the move!

## **Weimaraner**

Weimaraners were originally bred for hunting and are considered high-energy dogs. This breed loves to engage in outdoor activity time with family and does well with families who like to stay busy. About 60 minutes of activity time a day for this breed will help keep him happy and healthy.

**HEIGHT:** 23 to 29 inches

**WEIGHT:**50 to 90 pounds

**PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS:**Sleek body with a short coat; blue to gray color.

## **Siberian Husky**

Siberian Huskies were bred to pull sleds over very long distances. This breed is known for having an incredible amount of energy and loves to stay active. They do best with families who include them in outdoor activity time which can be anything from hiking to a brisk walk or a game of fetch. It is important to keep them active to prevent them from destroying indoor fixtures out of boredom.

It is important to remember that all dogs require daily exercise in order to remain fit and healthy. Dogs that are considered to be high energy dogs will require even more activity time to help them feel their best. Regardless which way you accomplish this, making sure to consistently keep your pup on a good activity schedule is very important.

      AVERAGE     Based on 358 reviews                    Posted on Google        Kevin     Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing staff. All very nice and answered all my questions. I loved all the dogs but I had to see the dog named Kevin! I went in with a completely negative view on petlands but the staff really changed my mind by going over all the breeder info, If I am ever in need of a puppy I will go there and you should too.         Posted on Google        Cecilia Caballero     Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We came at a time they were very busy and never once did we feel rushed, or given attitude while asking questions. The two on staff were amazing and sweet!         Posted on Google        Noelle Chaney     Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I went in to get my dogs nails trimmed and was met with a smile and warm greeting from an employee, Dean. The trimming was quick and they really showed my scared dog good care. It was the most pleasant experience I’ve had when it comes to some of these pet places!         Posted on Google        Shayna V     Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We just went for a walk”puppy therapy.”
Look at how cute they are.
I was a little surprised that considering how few customers were in at the time & yet we only got a “let us know if we can help you with anything” and that was it.  There were plenty of employees in store, as it was probably the beginning of the Friday night shift, before families started coming in.
I had made an appointment, just in case we decided to see any of the dogs.
I guess I’m accustomed to the employees being more personal and wanting to tell me things based on the conversation my group is having without me having to reach out to them.
