Living Conditions Will be happy at home in the country or ion town house. Would prefer a house with a garden. Enjoys being with owners and participating in family fun and games.

Exercise Requirements Needs at least one good walk a day. Would happily walk longer or go out for more outings. Need to be aware that they don't overheat when walking out on sunny days.
