Yeah, like a smooth collie and a dogue de bordeaux

Collies are adorable!
What about a sheltie? but then they would need more exercise probably.

WAY more exercise. Surprised me. They also don't come in smooth, pretty sure

Eh. Greyhounds are too big. Iggies are too clingy. Whippets barely make the cut...I've heard they can be a little more bouncy than a typical sprinting sighthound

I was thinking more like beagle or something lol

Beagles have a lot of energy. And I believe they have a scent to them...like bassets

Ive met some shelties and there coats are really smooth.
The training assistant in the class we took Tucker to has a sheltie(well 3 shelties) and she is smooth coated.

I never heard the scent thing before but maybe? Idk. I would think the occasional bath would keep it at bay. Also my friend has a beagle and they don’t exercise her that much and she’s perfectly fine. But then again she does have other dogs to play with, not sure how much she does that though. But yeah, I don’t think they’re THAT energetic once older. Otherwise a coonhound or bloodhound or something could work or basset, all are pretty lazy I think. At least once they’re older. But they’re bigger than you want.

Interesting. The akc doesn't recognise smooth shelties, so maybe BYB?

Our backdoor neighbor has a beagle he gets outside for 30 minutes and gets a 20 minute walk a day.
Then a family friend has a beagle thats 6 or 7 and he is super energetic like a few rounds of fetch and 20 minutes outside.
Then they have a beagle x cocker spaniel and she is super lazy.
