3. French Bulldog
The French Bulldog is a favorite among city dwellers and those with limited space.
These dogs have a compact size and require only minimal exercise, making them ideal for apartment living or busy owners.
Their short coat is easy to maintain—just a quick brush now and then keeps shedding in check.
Affectionate yet independent, Frenchies are content with short bursts of play and lots of cuddles.
