Best-matched service
Around 105 minutes a day for a healthy adult, with mental work as well as walking. They are happiest with a job to do.
Only lightly. The wiry coat sheds little, but it needs regular brushing and occasional stripping to stay tidy and mat-free.
It can if raised with them, but the hunting instinct is strong. Small pets and unfamiliar cats should be introduced with care.
