We are looking to help families find the best dogs for their liking and needs. We referenced PetMD, there are 10 Best Dogs for Kids and Families. To help determine which dogs is best suitable for your particular family, they asked Dr.Holly Putnam, a DVM and former board member for the Association of Shelter Veterinarians. She suggested that we must need to consider the size and our family's lifestyle and the energy level so that we know the best dog that fits us.
Here are the top 10 Family Dogs:
1. Mutts -- These pups often inherit the best traits from both parents, resulting in a well-rounded temperament. They can be just as loyal, friendly, and trainable as purebred dogs, and they may even have unique personality traits that make them stand out. Mixed-breed dogs are often more adaptable to different living situations and environments than purebred dogs.
2. The Golden Retriever - they are known for their friendly, gentle, and loyal nature. They are highly intelligent and love to please their owners, making them easy to train. They are also great with children and make great therapy dogs due to their calm and patient demeanor.
3. Labrador Retriever - dubbed as one of the most popular breeds, they are said to be playful, patient, loving, protective and reliable. It does not matter whether they are Black, Chocolate or Yellow, these Furiends are with strong stamina and strength so make sure you have also the same kind of energy. Lols! They are friendly with everyone. Their short coat though means they only need a weekly combing to keep them clean and healthy.
