Move over Paris and Nicole, there’s a new socialite in town.

While some dogs tend to struggle adapting to the Southbank lifestyle, it seems Pomeranian Zoe has not only adapted to apartment living, but also has embraced it.

According to owner Priscilla Floyd, Zoe loves living in Southbank because of the social aspect, being able to easily access the city, the parks and the beach. Zoe enjoys the variety.

Priscilla said the main reason she loved it so much was because of the social aspect.

“She loves the Southbank lifestyle, going out to cafes or Kings Domain for a stroll,” Priscilla said.

Priscilla also said Zoe was extremely friendly and it meant people were always friendly in return and very accommodating to Zoe’s needs.

Because of her size, Zoe has taken to apartment living with gusto.

“She’s a lapdog, so her preferred lifestyle is around people. When we’re at home she just looks like a cushion on the couch,” Priscilla explained.

It seems there is more than enough action in and around Southbank to keep Zoe happy. She attends Digerty Day Care in South Melbourne and is completely captivated by the police horses if she’s walking past the stables and they emerge.

When it comes down to it, Zoe just loves being around people and especially making new friends, as Priscilla explains: “She loves outings. A good day for her is to meet a new person who tells her she is beautiful!”
