Maybe a boxer. But you should probably do some searching on the Internet before you make a purchase. Read about all the different breeds

Golden Retriever

try going to your local humane society, ASPCA. First go online and see what they have available, they will also have all about their personalities, and if they are great with all sorts of people.

Everyone has their own ideas. Try an Internet Site on dog breeds, and talk to your friends and family. Every dog has pros and cons - even within breeds. But the best thing you can do is to rescue a dog, instead of buying one - whatever breed you choose. It is very rewarding!

labrador or retrivers are loyal easy to train, but will need quite a bit of exercise. if you want something smaller perhaps a terrier
you might like to do some research by looking on dog breeds sights kennel club run discover dogs you may like to try that it gives you all the info you need. why not go to your local dog home and have chat see what they have they usually match the dog to the person good luck

A great way to find the dog you just described is to go to several animal shelters and rescues and meet a bunch of different dogs. If you have your heart set on a purebred pup don’t worry shelters and rescues have more then you could ever imagine.

I would suggest getting a young dog with a sweet personality. Then make sure you socialize it to lots of different types of people. If you get a puppy talk to your vet about puppy classes, they will help shape his behavior to what you want. Remember, the owner has the last say in the behavior a dog develops. commit yourself to helping your dog be well mannered and it will come.

You should maybe go 2 a website on what kinds of breeds of dogs there r and choose the dog that will fit u. For my opinion, i would go with a golden retriever or labrador.

It really comes down to how you take care of the dog. If you purchase a puppy from a reputable breeder, and take care to train the puppy and socialize him or her well, to other dogs, children, and strangers, then you will wind up with a well adjusted dog who gets along well with everyone. Any dog will have to be watched carefully around children, and a younger dog might be too energetic for frail, elderly people.

Labrador Retrievers, and Golden Retrievers generally make good family dogs, but they require lots of exercise (beyond a daily walk), and it takes them two or three years to get beyond the puppy stages and settle down into mature dogs. You might look into adopting an adult dog, if you need a calmer dog right away.

bernese mountain dog for a big dog and pekengese for a small dog. lol!

I’d suggest a Bichion Frise (wonderful with older people), or a Golden Retriever, and Labs are good too. However, here is a suggestive link:

If you are looking for a larger dog, a lab is a safe bet.
For a smaller dog, I would go with a cocker spaniel or cockapoo.


Debbie on 3 June, 2009 at 12:05 pm #

No no no to the Cocker Spaniel. My Mom had two of them and they were psycho! These used to be very popular and I believe they were over-bred. I think a Lab is a safe bet….they love everybody.


t_pham22 on 4 June, 2009 at 7:50 pm #

well to me a doberman would be the best. they are very smart and i heard they are good with children. dont be taken off gaurd by their look. they are bred to gaurd stuff but they are loyal and very obidient. however dont let the dog outsmart you.
