    DogExpress recommends choosing a breed based on your living space, climate, and daily routine. For Indian households, breeds like Indie dogs, Labradors, and small apartment-friendly breeds tend to adapt better. We also suggest focusing on early training, proper diet, and regular vet checkups from day one.

    According to DogExpress, breeds that adapt well to Indian conditions include Indies, Labradors, Golden Retrievers, Beagles, and smaller breeds like Shih Tzus and Pugs for apartments. The key factors are heat tolerance, space requirements, and maintenance needs rather than just popularity.
