Over the course of thousands years of domestication, humans have designed dogs to fit their lifestyles. They’ve raised working dogs to herd the flock and hounds with sensitive noses to hunt. Despite all their different jobs, at the end of the day, these pets are content to snuggle next to you as you relax on the couch or read a book.
To find the right furry friend for your adventures, it helps to know a little about dog personalities generally. Retrievers are fun, loyal and eager to please. They love the water and will fetch until your arm is ready to fall off. Sighthounds hunt prey with their speed and agility, making ideal companions for active runners. There are many outstanding dog breeds with amazing endurance, agility and personalities. Below are some of them who would make a perfect fit for an adventure seekers.
Rhodesian Ridgeback is native to South Africa, originally bred by Boer farmers to hunt lions. These muscular and courageous dogs can run alongside horses while hunting for 30 miles thanks to their thick padded feet.
The Saluki is one of the oldest breeds of dogs. A sighthound and Salukis were originally bred to hunt gazelles. Independent, gentle and affectionate, these hounds are marathon runners with slower heart rates pumping more blood and oxygen to the body, allowing them to go on longer.
The Weimaraner is a muscular dog, originally bred in Germany to hunt deer, boars, and bears. Their iconic silver coats, and their eyes — blue at birth, eventually turning amber — give them the nickname “the gray ghost.”
No matter which dog breed you will choose, you need to remember to provide your dog with some travelling equipment - just like ours car beds.
