7. The Saint Bernard Doesn't Need Much Exercise
With its remarkable background as a mountain rescue dog, the Saint Bernard has developed into a wonderful family friend combining mild disposition with suitable living conditions. These amazing dogs show incredible adaptability in fitting many living conditions, from large suburban homes to more small spaces, despite their great weight. Their experience working under the demanding conditions of the Western Alps between Italy and Switzerland has given them emotional intelligence as well as physical power.
Their shockingly low workout needs appeal especially to modern families. Saint Bernards, unlike many other big breeds, are happy with modest levels of activity and value quality time with family members over vigorous physical exercise. Families with children would find them perfect because of their soft approach and patience; their natural protective instincts guarantee they remain alert protectors of their loved ones. Their flexible temperament and teddy bear-like look, together with their loving attitude, make them ideal for people looking for a big but reasonable friend that shines in offering both emotional support and physical presence.
