Rescue Advice

Hello all! Please help if you can, I would appreciate advice. I am looking to adopt an adult. I have narrowed it down to either an Eskie or a Keeshond. I have read that Eskies have a higher energy level than Keeshonds, and they require lots of exercise or they will become destructive. I would keep it strictly indoors, but take it out for play time, walks, trips, and obedience classes. It would be left alone for six hours a day, four days a week (safe area with crate, chew toys, water). Any advice? Thank you!! Please feel free to email me at: eaphillips@novanthealth.org Thanks, Erinn

My aunt has an eskie, and we are planning on getting one soon. She leaves her dog home approximatly everyday. It does require brushing, and as far as energy and exercise go, she takes her on walks everyday, and not everyday, but a lot, they play with her for an hour about outside, or take her to the park.
