6. Pembroke Welsh Corgi

Corgis are basically ideal for any lazy person who occasionally wants their pet to run around all energetic and heckin' cute. If you can provide them with daily walks and toys to play with, they are a good option for you.

One of their main drawbacks is that they constantly shed fur, which means the vacuum cleaner may become a regular part of your household routine. For an active senior, though, a Corgi can be a loyal and fun companion.
