Corgi
The Corgi will make a marvelous companion for the more active seniors. Their highly- energetic personalities and compact size, this herding dog breed has the same energy level as larger dogs, only in a smaller and more manageable package. Corgis will keep you entertained for hours! Another commonly known fact is that Queen Elizabeth’s favorite dog breed is the Corgi and she has several of them.
Japanese Chin
The Japanese Chin is a good choice for seniors since it doesn’t need too much exercise and is easy to groom. For many years, this dog has been a companion dog and is less ‘yappy’ than other dog breeds of this size. A run around the backyard is enough for this breed. It’ll be just as happy to come back and cuddle with you.
