I agree with Debbie's assesment.

And yes, Chris, my experince has been that dogs that are overweight are more active after they get back to a correct weight.

As for being rasied in a kennel, well, I've bought dogs that were kennel raised and some of them played and some didn't.

My dogs were not raised in a kennel and well, some play and some don't. Some like to play with toys, some like to tear toys to shreds, and some don't really care about toys.

IMO, it's just an individual dog prefrence.

And by the way, the only place a dog can sweat is on it's pads. And I doubt she's sweating after a walk, it's not typical. Dogs sweat from stress or being nervous though, often you can notice this in a vet's office on the exam table.
