Chickentrain's Dog Q&A

Well crap

tbh I don't think that I'll do well in an apartment either, I'm not really a city person
but apartments are much more affordable than houses for someone that's trying to pay of college debt

Look into a pug. Most of the ones I see are laid back

But they have so many health problems

People have kept every breed of dog in an apartment. What matters most of the time is the time you spend with them, and that they get exercise. Cardigan Corgis do fine in apartments so long as they have mental stimulation and several walks.

While there are breeds to definitely, absolutely veto in apartments, Corgis aren't one. Alaskan huskies, LGD breeds, schipperkes (small, but very, VERY barky) and anything that poos over a pound at a time, those are the kinds you don't want in an apartment!

....actually, you don't really want Alaskan huskies or LGDs at all unless you're using them for the job they're bred for. Not all dogs are pets.

I love walking dogs, and would also never get one if I couldn't give it proper attention.

and anything that poos over a pound at a time

out of sheer curiosity, what breeds DO fall into that category?

I understand about the LGDs, but why the huskies? I know plenty of people that have them, and they seem pretty popular. Unless I'm thinking of a different subcategory of the breed or something... (not why not huskies for apartments, why not huskies for pets in general)

I know that poodles, labradors, and german shepherds are often used in lines of work and competitions that need a high level of training, but that's about it for what I know.
