13. ITALIAN GREYHOUND
Who doesn’t love the athletic, gracious figure of a Greyhound? If you are thrilled with the idea of getting a larger dog, yet not quite fully sure if said dog would fit with your lifestyle, then we’re here to tell you that greyhounds are a great pick. While they are quite large, Italian Greyhounds are definitely manageable for seniors, especially due to the fact that they do not require hours and hours of daily exercise – a one hour walk / day would suffice. Moreover, this breed has silky-smooth short hair, so they require minimal grooming, while being a delight to cuddle and pet.
