What is a "lapdog"?

A lapdog is a small-sized dog breed that is known for its affectionate and friendly nature, and is often kept as a companion animal that sits on its owner's lap. Lapdogs are typically small in size, with a gentle temperament, and they enjoy being close to their owner, providing companionship and comfort. They are often known for their loyalty and affectionate nature, and they are commonly associated with providing comfort and warmth by sitting on their owner's lap or snuggling with them. Lapdogs are often well-suited for indoor living and are known for their ability to form strong bonds with their human companions, making them popular choices as lap pets for people seeking a close and loving companion animal.
