Terriers seem to be a popular choice for city dwellers. The West Highland Terrier is one of the popular ones since they have a pleasant temperament and are also good lapdogs.
This breed is suited for apartment living and only needs an hour of exercise every day. Despite their soft fur coat, you won’t need to do too much grooming.
Standard Poodle
Standard Poodles are very popular and for a good reason! It's one of the smartest dog breeds out there. You can have endless fun teaching them new tricks. And Standard Poodles naturally have a loving and tender nature.
Being a more independent breed, Standard Poodles love being around their human family and will do well as long as they get enough exercise.
Italian Greyhound
The Italian Greyhound or 'Iggies' is the purest form of the Greyhound. It's energetic, slender, and muscular. The Greyhound's accentuated curved back gives it a royal appearance.
Despite being known as swift racing hounds, ironically, they are also a lazy breed. They'll be happy to just relax on the couch for most of the day!
Biewer
You may be just discovering this unique breed, and you'll be happy you did. The Biewer is a relatively small dog, well, one of the smallest in fact, but its heart is enormous.
Biewers are known for being very tender, intelligent, and playful. Despite their thick mane, they don't shed much. If taken good care of, it typically lives up to 14 years, so you'll have many years to spend together.
Pomeranian
If you're looking for an affectionate and active dog, a Pomeranian could be a perfect fit for you! Their small size makes them great in small spaces like apartments, and even though it's fluffy, it hardly sheds, but you should brush it often.
And you'll have no trouble training a Pomerraninan because they're brilliant.
