First, I would go for a mild mannered quiet dog. Second, I would get a non-shedding dog. I would highly recommend a maltese, maltese mix, shihtzu, or shihapoo. I have both of these dogs and they are great dogs. If you look at Petfinder.com you can usually find any breed of dog you want at a reasonable price within or close to your zip code.
