Dogs are often a big part of the family and can be a great addition to an apartment, but not every dog is suited for a small space. The best apartment dogs for a small space are those that can be left at home alone for extended periods of time. The first step to getting an apartment dog is to determine what type of dog you want. If you have a small space and want something low-maintenance, then you should consider getting a smaller breed. If you have more space, then you can explore more options.

You wouldn't think a dog this large is good for apartment living but they are very mellow and giant couch potatoes!

Bullies are not low maintenance dogs and have a lot of health problems. They are very sociable dogs and I would not recommend leaving one alone for a long period of time, the same as every dog here on this list. Dogs need the toilet at least once every four hours

With their super flat faces/noses this breed is also brachycephalic and will get respiratory and eye problems,, plus bone problems because their heads are so giant compared with the rest of their bodies. #Qualzucht (torment breed).

I would not recommend a dog for anyone who is not at home for long periods of time in the day. Most dogs are companion dogs and need company it's not fair on any pet that is sociable to leave them unattended. Even cats with all their indifference and independence love being around their humans. Invest in an aquarium or reptiles that like to sleep all day instead please xx

This a good list for folks without a lot of space. Just be prepared to give up yours on the couch, bed, bathroom, etc.

I upvoted the photos, but not because I´d agree with the author. I did it because - in spite of most of the dogs being a "Qualzucht" (torment breed) they´re still cute somehow. #AdoptDontShop and get a mutt if at all, but only if you can offer enough room and enough time to take it for walks.

Adoption is a tricky route. I adopted him, the shelter said he was perfectly healthy. I loved him to pieces, but it turned out he'd come from an abusive home and one of his growth plates was smashed against a wall. The vet bill was astonishing and I never would have gotten him had the shelter not lied. Adoption can be good, but it's not a viable option for people who want to get tested healthy stable dogs.
