This lovable breed seems to top everyone's "best dog for kids" list. Golden retrievers were bred to hunt, and that means they crave lots of exercise. They love to play and are great play companions for children of all ages.
These merry little hounds are well known to all fans of Snoopy, Charlie Brown's pet in the Peanuts cartoons. Their easy-going nature and love of playtime make beagles an excellent family pet.
These working dogs are affectionate and gentle at all times and enjoy protecting their families. They need daily walks and enjoy playtime exercise. This is a low maintenance breed that needs brushing only once a week.
This water dog is a gentle giant with a sweet temperament. Because "newfies" are exceptionally good with children, they are known as "nanny dogs". Males normally reach 150 pounds when fully grown. They are incredibly loyal, with a calm, docile nature.
Mutts often make excellent pets for youngsters. Look for one that appears to be happy at the sight of children. Be wary of any dog that yawns excessively or tends to look away; this can be a sign of stress. Avoid dogs that appear to be sensitive to touch or noise.
Great dog breeds.
I am a dog lover and like the fact that you express the reasons why each of these breeds is a good choice for children.
