Medium-size breeds that fit your lifestyle. Many people are most comfortable with a dog in the 35-ish to 50-ish pound range. But size tells you very little about the life that comes with the dog. For many people, the ideal dog weighs somewhere around 35 to 50 pounds, with some variation depending on sex, breeding lines and the individual dog. It is enough dog to feel substantial without requiring the space, strength or logistics that often come with a large breed. But dogs of similar weight can be nothing alike. In this video, I look at six medium-sized breeds suited to very different lifestyles: • Brittany • Whippet • Barbet • Cardigan Welsh Corgi • Norwegian Elkhound • Basset Hound One is an athletic bird dog. One is a sensitive sprinter. One offers a purebred alternative to the doodle. Another was designed to hunt moose in Scandinavia. And the Basset Hound proves that short and small are not remotely the same thing. These are not six interchangeable recommendations. The point is to find the dog whose energy, temperament and original purpose belong in the life you already live. The breed comes with the dog. Which one fits the life you actually live? Breed-selection services are available in my bio. #dogsoftiktok #firsttimedogowner #brittanyspaniel #whippetsoftiktok #barbet #norwegianelkhound #bassethound #corgi #corgisoftiktok #cardiganwelshcorgi
