Many inhabitants of high-rise buildings, who do not evenly breathe towards our smaller brothers, sooner or later think about what kind of dog can be got in an apartment without damaging both the premises and the animal itself. Everyone knows that there are dogs that are suitable for keeping only in open-air cages - they need freedom and a lot of space. But for a long time there have been such breeds that fit tightly into the rhythm of the city and are not at all adapted to life in street conditions.
Pomeranian
A striking example of domestic dogs is the Pomeranian, or as it is also called, the Pomeranian. A fluffy and cute animal with its own disposition and character will never let its owner get bored and relax. They are constantly active and cheerful. This breed is suitable for people who are not used to sitting still. Spitz are also very gentle creatures. They need to be trained gently, otherwise there is a possibility of harming their psyche. These dogs do not get along very well with children, so experts recommend starting this breed when the child reaches 8 years old. Pomeranians are a bold and self-confident breed that is completely unable to analyze their size in relation to other dogs, which is why they often come into conflict with larger breeds. To avoid this, it is advised to walk with the Spitz in places where the number of other dogs is minimized.
Jack Russell Terrier
This dog is a real adventurer. She will be ready to share with you any of your business and occupation - everything will be interesting to her. Active, kind, obedient, loyal - this is all about this breed. Jack Russells are excellent hunters, so taking them with you somewhere to the village, you can watch how these dogs will explore all the surroundings for long hours in search of prey. They are small in stature - only 25-30 cm, which is a huge advantage for keeping in an apartment. With the right upbringing from early childhood, Jack Russells are able to become the most loyal friends to you and your children, as well as get along well with other pets.
Yorkshire Terrier
This is a real intelligentsia in a toy format. Soft, kind and fluffy, they will become the best friends for children, sharing their activity and all the games. However, for older people, this breed can become a wonderful companion and companion. They are small and shed very little, so they are perfect for an apartment. You need to know that these dogs are very picky in food and do not eat everything - they absolutely cannot eat some food. Also, you will regularly need to monitor their appearance and take them to haircuts, since the breed is decorative. Yorkshire Terriers are very smart and quick-witted, which makes it easy to train, but you have to cope with their extreme activity and restlessness.
Chihuahua
This is the smallest dog breed in the world with a very ancient origin, dating back to the time of the Aztecs. Freedom-loving, does not have the easiest character, but having chosen one owner for herself, she will be faithful to him with every cell. Just like Pomeranians, Chihuahuas are very brave, ready to come into conflict with dogs that are many times larger than them, which is very dangerous. The owner always needs to be alert and closely watch his pet. If this breed is not trained, a capricious and harmful individual can grow, therefore, the main aspects of training will have to be paid attention to. If you do everything right, then you will get a great four-legged friend. This is the most popular breed of dog, which certainly will not go unnoticed in society. The growth and length of the coat of this breed allows it to live in conditions even in a small apartment.
Pekingese
This breed is truly apartment. They do not tolerate any courtyard areas, they only need comfort and homeliness. Very wayward dogs, which are not as easy to train as we would like. Pekingese are not as friendly as their cousins described above. Rather, they will behave like kings or even emperors. It is undesirable for families with small children to have this breed, as the dog can be quite hostile to the child. It will be much easier for teenagers to find a common language with the Pekingese. In caring for this breed, it is worth paying special attention to the undercoat. They have it quite thick and it is necessary to comb it out regularly. With dogs of other breeds, the Pekingese behaves cautiously, but can attack if it feels threatened. This breed is calm and not too playful, so it will elegantly fit into the rhythm of life of pensioners and people with a busy schedule.
