The Best Dog Breeds for Kids

Picking the Best Family Dogs for Kids

If you are thinking of introducing a dog into your family with young children, it's critical to choose a breed whose characteristics match your kid's temperament. Would your child love a pet to run around the yard with, or a friend to curl up and read a book with? Make sure you also consider the available space in your home. Do you have plenty of space, or is your home small?

Our vets often recommend the following dog breeds for families with children.
