Some dogs are ready for a long nap after a short stroll around the block, while others would happily run marathons all day if you let them, and it’s usually determined by breed.

Pugs were bred to warm royal laps, and Border Collies to be out in the fields. Jack Russell Terriers are full of energy despite their small stature, while Greyhounds (despite their speed) are world-class loungers.

Every breed offers its own mix of energy and instincts that dictate how much exercise they really need to stay fit and healthy, differing so much that it’s hard to believe they’re all the same species.

Push them beyond their limits and you risk joint damage, muscle strains, and even arthritis. Hold them back, and you’re asking for obesity, anxiety, and a chewed-up couch.

To help dog owners keep the right pace for their pets, Woofz has created a collection of Spotify playlists, tailored to different breeds’ energy levels and recommended walk times. From chilled out tracks for lazy dogs and leisurely strolls to fast beats for four-legged endurance athletes, there’s a soundtrack guaranteed to get every type of tail wagging.
