Small Breeds

If you live in a small apartment or don't have a lot of outdoor space, consider getting a small breed dog. These dogs are compact and don't need as much room to run around. Some popular small breeds include Chihuahuas, Pomeranians, and French Bulldogs.

Toy Breeds

Toy breeds are even smaller than small breeds and are perfect for apartment living. They are often lap dogs and love to cuddle up with their owners. Some popular toy breeds include Yorkshire Terriers, Maltese, and Pugs.

Low Energy Breeds

If you prefer a dog that doesn't require a lot of exercise, consider getting a low energy breed. These dogs are happy lounging around the house and don't need to be taken on long walks. Some low energy breeds include Basset Hounds, Bulldogs, and Shih Tzus.

Senior Breeds

If you're looking for a calm and mellow companion, consider getting a senior breed dog. These dogs are typically older and have a more relaxed demeanor. Some senior breeds include Greyhounds, Dachshunds, and Boxers.


Remember, no matter what breed you choose, it's important to provide your furry friend with plenty of love, attention, and exercise to keep them happy and healthy!

Peanut butter oatmeal dog treats

Peanut butter oatmeal dog treats Today, I am super excited to share my techniques for making another truly wholesome dog treat with you. After-all, your furry companions deserve healthy food, so that they can be their best selves. These pup treats are the perfect snack to make ahead of time for your cuddly pooch as a reward for their love and companionship, obedience, potty-training, or for any other training in general.  My fur baby seems to think that the treats taste better when they're made in different cute shapes. So, I use three different cookie cutters when I make these dog treats. Plus, using different cookie cutter sizes also allows me to make good use of the leftover dough pieces. The three shapes that I am using for this recipe are a gingerbread man, a star, and a flower-shaped cookie cutter. (I use regular cookie cutters to make mine.) If you don't have any cookie cutters, that's okay too. After rolling out the dough, cut it into squared-shaped pieces, or use a...

DIY pet bed

DIY pet bed Do you have a fur baby that sometimes has to sleep in a kennel, during times when you're away from home? This is a simple, no-sew DIY kennel bed project that anyone can accomplish.  I timed myself when making my pooch this DIY kennel bed. It actually took me about forty-two minutes from start to finish. My almost eight-year-old boxer has to be placed in her dog's kennel during thunderstorms, or else she simply goes loco. We purchased two different kennel mats for her, but for some unknown reason, she doesn't like either of them. Instead of her using them to lay on, she wads them up, and literally kicks them to the corner of her kennel. Since Princess (my dog) isn't getting any younger, she really doesn't need to be lying on the hard floor of the kennel. So, I came up with this DIY kennel bed idea for her. The length and width of my dog's kennel is 54 inches x 37 inches. So, I cut out two pieces of soft material that size, then I cut strips along the ...
