Breeds Of Dogs
3 New Breeds To Be Showcased At Westminster
Three new dog breeds will appear at the Westminster Kennel Club show in New York City next week.

With living in an apartment, picking the right dog can be difficult-especially coming from a person who isn't partial to small dogs. After doing some research, I was surprised to find that there are numerous large-breed dogs that are well-suited for apartment living.

1. Mastiff - Mastiffs are huge so when my boyfriend told me they are actually perfect for apartments, I called him crazy. Come to find out, they really are! Because of their massive size, they tend to be lazy. Being calm-mannered dogs, they aren't yappers either. His parents have two mastiffs and I have only heard them bark when they feel there is danger. Also, they don't require a ton of exercise so a large backyard or constant walks are not necessary.

2. Greyhound - My cousin has a greyhound and it is, by far, the sweetest dog I have ever encountered. Though she is a large, lean dog, she sees herself as a lapdog, always trying to snuggle on the couch. Greyhounds are good apartment dogs because they are so mellow and sweet. They require a bit more exercise than a mastiff would but still not so that it would cut into your daily routine.

3. Great Dane - I would only recommend a Great Dane for someone that can make a commitment to daily jogs. Though Great Danes are mild mannered dogs that do not bark a lot and tend to be lazy around the house, they do need to get out a lot more than the other dogs listed.
