Default whats a good bread of dog suitable for my home?

I currently own a miniature foxy X jack russell who lives with my parents. had her since i was 17 and now live in a town an hr away and never bought her with me as she's settled plus i wasn't allowed pets. I recently stuck in a request of pets to my landlord and i'm waiting for a reply (fingers crossed he lets me! the flat up from me has a cat so surely i can own a dog).I am interested in a small dog like chloe my current dog. she's really smart, well trained and an indoor and outdoor dog. I trained her myself so i am expecting to be able to train another puppy rather well.My yard is really small but I will take the dog on daily walks. I want a dog who's easy to maintain with fur length. isn't noisy, is small and loves affection as well as a play and is energetic enough after growing into adulthood. What other breeds apart from the fox terrier are suitable for my circumstances. thanks for your answers :-)Ah silly spelling mistake - bread. no need to be a smart arse to that rude person. and secondly i already said i can't have my own dog. shes settled where she is and the move would be unsettling for her. on the side, my parents are also very attached and shes spoilt rotten and i'd prefer keep her happily where she is and find myself a new dog to entertain me and give a good home to...

why not try a local shelter instead, they often have purebreds, and even those that aren't are still starved for affection and need good homes. they have dogs of all ages. not to mention you usually get a history of the dog like how active it is and how noisy is is ect... which is always good because even if you get a breed that's know to not bark or somethng it's all in the individual dog really, and when you get a puppy you never know what it's going to be like.

Save a life, look at the dogs in an animal shelter that desperately need a home. Most r already housebroken, spayed or neutered, have current shots and u get to see their behavior before u take it home. The shelter people may be able to fill u in on some background of the dog and the choices r plentiful, everything from pure breed to mixed. Take a chance, u won`t be sorry.

Get yourself a "Pug".. small, weighs nothing more than 42 pounds when healthy and the bark if that's what you want to call is about a volume 2 on your television set. Great with kids, a very good watch dog and easy to train.. oh yeah, and they do listen very intentative to you..

I recommend a pug if you are going to be around alot. Pugs are lapdogs...bred to be companion dogs. So they need to be close to you but will be depressed if you leave them all day to go to work. I am a stay at home mom so my pug fits our life. Pugs are quiet, but do shed alot. They are also loyal and protective. They are the sweetest little dogs...wouldnt have any other. They only health problem that I have encountered is just making sure their eyes are taken care of. They dont have a nose that blocks dust and dirt so it goes into their eyes.
