[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It really depends on the dog — partially breed dependent but also personality.  My brothers German shepherd is in movement almost all day.  I have a neighbor whose golden retriever er spends the day trying to hold their hand or watching out the window for neighbors.  Here is my golden’s typical day:

7 am walk
8-9 am, squirrel monitoring and maintenance
9-10:30 am — morning nap.
10:30-11–watch food container
11 — lunch 
12 — afternoon walk
12:30-2:30 afternoon nap
2:30-3 watch food container
3 — afternoon snack
3-5–afternoon snack perhaps punctuated by squirrel maintenance or will play soccer outside if anyone will play with him
5–short walk, followed by monitoring of food container and humans preparing dinner 
7 — dinner, followed by additional monitoring of human food consumption
9–short night walk, followed by 15 minutes of tug or throwing chew toy h in air and demands for butt scratches

Lol. I understand squirrel monitoring but can you explain squirrel maintenance?[/quote]

Keeping them in their place.  If they are on the fence, lawn or furniture, they need to be chased back up into the trees.  Maintaining the social order is very important when it comes to squirrels.  Number 2 priority after ensuring proper feeding including payment of cheese tax and other applicable import duties. This is my dog’s world view.[/quote]

Lol! This is my dog's world view, as well!

My dog's schedule is very similar to yours. Lots of squirrel correction, staring at food containers, napping, etc. [/quote]
