Boxer...one of the smartest and well behaved, loving and protective of their owners.

There are places online that you could search for "apartment dogs", which could give you an idea of dogs that don't require a lot of excersize. It all depends on what you want, so weigh the sides of personalities with each dog because each dog has specific characteristics you might like, and there are outside reasons to why you would get a specific breed besides just the size of your house and yard, of course.I got a beagle recently and I live in an apartment with a lot of space for me to walk him and play with him outside. He is great because of his smaller size and has a lot of energy (but not too much). He is extremely friendly with other people and other dogs, which is one of my favorite traits about him. Also, beagles are pretty smart so he has learned tricks quickly (though they can tend to be stubborn at times, so that may be why housetraining has been difficult!)

Personally, I would recommend something like a Beagle, Jack Russell, or American Eskimo Dog. Just whatever is to your preference. There are tons of different breeds. It just depends on what you like.

Before you make a decision, please consider adopting a pet from your local humane society. There are countless pets out there that desperately need loving homes

Just purchase the dog YOU want.The size of house and yard really has not alot to do with what kind of dog you'd like.I have a Yorkie, great personality etc. acreage, large home.Doesn't make a difference, she weighs 5 pounds.good luck

You should get a medium sized dog like a lab mix or a golden retriever, or an Irish Setter. I have a husky and it likes to terrorize and escape and is pretty much a wild beast, but I have a big yard for him and it's cool, but he's crazy. We call him Crazy Kai, you never seen a dog with so much energy, I wish I had a sled so he could pull me around. He sleeps like a human to, dogs should sleep 12 hours a day, kai sleeps around 8
