Man’s best friend my be his dog, but finding the perfect match can leave you dog tired. While you may have an idea of the type of dog that you feel matches your personality, finding a dog that can thrive in the City, with the noise, pollution, and limited spaces is most important. While the most popular dogs of the moment may be those that fit in a lady’s handbag, “Tinkerbelle” may not be perfect for everyone. Following are the breeders selection of dogs most adaptable to city life.
Affenpinscher
Bassett
Bichon Frise
Boston Terrier
Bulldog (French and English)
Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
Chihuahua
Chin Spaniel
Chinese Crested
Corgi
Dachshund
Italian Greyhound
Lhasa Apso
Lowchen
Maltese
Papillion
Pekingese
Poodle
Pomeranian
Pug
Scottish Terrier
Schnauzer
Shih-Tzu
Westie
Yorkshire Terrier
Note that all of the dogs are small to medium sized. Many larger dogs will happily live in the City (Labradors, Rotweillers, Great Danes, etc) but due to increasingly strict insurance regulations and the prevailing law suits. Even pet friendly buildings are requiring that dogs meet strict breed and size requirements.
