We’ve found that with Odie (not a sighthound) in that when he’s at home he doesn’t really use the space we have as much as we assumed he would. He’s out at least twice a day, dashing about and exploring, then he just crashes out at home. I guess with larger dogs, it’s more that they just take up space and are going to be under foot or bumping in to stuff more in smaller spaces?
Loads of people recommend sighthounds and lurchers as flat suitable dogs particularly because they don't need a garden. They don't have to do their crazy running in a garden if you have access to other open space. I mean, who has a garden big enough for a sighthound to prpoperly gun it in? Otto needs about 100m x 100m!
I totally appreciate that it might not feel like that with a young one though :D
