5. Basset Hound
These low-bellied hot dogs are part of the hunting family, and a renowned family pet. Although they’re genetically hinters, they’re quite slow paced and lazy, but they’re equally loyal. Along with being gentle and very affectionate, they can be a bit stubborn and take some time to train, so if you’re extremely busy, this might not be the best choice. They usually weight around 50-60 pounds, making them good for smaller apartments.
