If you need a dog that can be indoors for long periods, a pug makes a good choice. Just be sure to keep your cat\u2019s nails trimmed regularly since a pug\u2019s eyes can be a bit vulnerable given their slight bulge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-838 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/lovelyn.us\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/dog-cat-2479948_960_720.jpg\" alt=\"cat and dog\" width=\"960\" height=\"680\" \/>The list above includes 5 dog breeds that are ideal for you home if you own a cat or intend to get one.
