We listed several dogs that we think are great for people who live in small homes or apartments. Which dog is best comes down to what you are looking for in a furry friend. If you are looking for someone more active then the Pug and King Charles Spaniel may not be the best breed for you. This being said, all dogs on this list are great for apartment life so long as they have the requirements they need. If you don't have much time in the day to take your dog out for walks and things then you may want to avoid bringing a Greyhound into your family.
