just smaller dogs... if you were to get a large dog, say like a german shepard or even a malamute, they just wouldnt have enough room to run around in... depends on how small your yard is too... i mean, if your yard is only say 12'x12' you wouldnt want to get anything larger than a yorkie...

I like the site dogbreedinfo.com - - take their quiz for what dogs are right for you.
The size of your yard is only one part of the equation. If you would take the dog for walks/runs outside the yard, the size of your yard might be less important.
Also, what types of dogs do you LIKE? What family situation do you have? Do you want a dog with some guarding capabilities?
dogbreedinfo.com covers these sorts of things before suggesting dogs.
Another idea is to talk to your local animal rescue and see if they have a program to match people with adoptable dogs.

I would say that anything small. Maybe a miniature pinscher or a terrier of any kind. they also have toy dogs that rarely weigh more that 7-8 lbs. if you dont like ankle biters go with a jack russel terrier. They are not only cute but great companions!

look on the internet for dogs that dont have so much energy that they wouldnt want to play out in the backyard all day long. i like charles king spaniels, they r cute, cuddly and so lovable!!!
