Dogs Good For Apartment Life

This is a list of breeds that are considered "Good" for apartment life. If you do not see a breed listed here, it does not mean that it cannot live in an apartment. This list only covers the breeds considered "Best" for apartment life. Do not assume that just because they are small they get enough exercise running around your home. Your home is like a large cage. If you have a yard its a larger cage. The key to keeping any dog in an apartment is providing enough exercise. Dogs are canine animals which retain the instinct to migrate. Therefore, even small dogs need to be taken out for daily walks. High energy dogs can live in an apartment if the owner takes them out for long walks, bike rides or jogs. Enough daily exercise is the key to keeping any dog stable and happy. Be sure it is the right type of exercise. An exercise that drains both the dogs physical and mental energy. Only providing excited exercise (i.e. playing with other dogs or tossing a ball) does not drain the dogs mental energy. Find out more, read, The Proper Way to Walk a Dog.
