The Small Toy Dog

A small toy dog is a perfect apartment pet.

Cuddly and loving, these dogs do not require a large yard or extensive exercise so they work well for less active adults as well as those in a condo or apartment. Having said that, it is important to note that many small dogs love to go on long walks and can be very good at the sport of agility.

Small dogs can be great pets, but you have to let them know who is master. Some of them can tend to get a bit yippy or overprotective so discipline is important in a toy dog.
