A spacious house for a comfortable life with four-legged for many urban residents is nothing more than a dream. But small living space is not always a reason to refuse to buy a dog. Here is a list of breeds that adapt well to living in apartments.

1. Yorkshire Terrier
They are quick-witted, sociable, amenable to training and very attached to the owner dogs. Another important advantage of these animals is that their fur almost does not shed, so, clothes and furniture will remain clean.

2. Pomeranian Spitz
These dogs are very clean and funny animals who love long walks and quickly converge with new people. In addition, they have excellent hearing. But keep in mind: Spitz is not suitable for families with children. Due to careless handling, it can grow aggressive.

3. Bichon frize
Families with young children should pay attention to Bichon Frize puppies. These are miniature snow-white dogs with expressive dark eyes and thick curly hair. The Bichon Frize is practically devoid of aggression and gets along well with children of any age. And they are easy to train.

4. Welsh Corgi Pembroke
These are balanced, friendly and undemanding pets. They do not need a haircut, trimming, and warm overalls. Also, the owners can not worry that the pet will chew on furniture and spoil the wallpaper. Perhaps, their only weak point is the unlimited love of food.

5. French Bulldog
These are medium-sized muscular dogs with large erect ears. They are calm and do not require active walking, and therefore can be great companions for the disabled and senior citizens. French Bulldogs need a short 20-minute walk to be in good shape. But, be careful: these animals do not tolerate heat and low temperatures.

6. Pekingese
These dogs prefer short measured walks because they do not tolerate jogging due to the special structure of the nasopharynx. In addition, they can be accustomed to the tray. Then you won’t have to wake up early and take the dog to the street. But, the long Pekingese coat needs care – without daily combing, it will look untidy.

7. Shih Tzu
This is a smart, affectionate, and emotional dog. It is great for families with children. The main care for dogs of this breed is long silky hair. Shih Tzu needs regular bathing, combing, cutting, and styling.

8. Miniature pinscher
Representatives of this breed are distinguished by courage, confidence, and hyperactivity. They do not need special care, quickly adapt to life in the apartment and are great for outdoor enthusiasts. Mini Pinschers love long walks and all kinds of outdoor games.

9. Labrador Retriever
For a comfortable life, the Labrador needs a lot of personal space, so, studio residents should not have such a pet. At the same time, you need to walk him at least two hours a day. Due to a lack of physical activity, it will become worse at perceiving commands and may turn its attention to slippers and furniture.

10. Shiba Inu
The dogs are neat, play with kids with pleasure and are very patient with children’s pranks. But, there is an important caveat: such a pet needs a master with a strong character. If you do not stop aggression and attempts to manipulate “two-legged neighbors” in time, Shiba Inu can grow up as a naughty and stubborn animal.
