The Best Dog Breeds For Apartments
Thinking of adding a fluffy companion to your Forest Properties apartment? There are a lot of points to consider when it comes to getting a dog, including barking, having space to run and play, and potential shedding. Big or small, there are plenty of dog breeds that are suitable for comfortable apartment living. Whether you’re looking to adopt or shop, perhaps the most important thing to keep in mind is the breed and personality of your pup. Here are the best dog breeds for apartments and small living spaces.
French Bulldog
Did you know French Bulldogs were originally bred as companion animals? Frenchies are smaller than they are traditional Bulldog counterpart, but they don’t fall short in the playful and affectionate departments. They adapt very well to both small and large living spaces and tend to be no larger than 28 pounds.
Dachshund
Whether you have a one bedroom apartment at Sagamore Court or a three bedroom unit at Parke Place Village in New Hampshire, Dachshunds are a small breed dog that has a big dog bark. Whether you call these friendly pups wiener dogs or hot dogs, Dachshunds are very friendly in nature, curious, protective over their family, and intelligent. Here are some other fun facts:
