Searching for your first-ever dog?

Once you’ve determined you’re ready for a puppy, one of the breeds below might be perfect for you and your family.

Make sure you talk to responsible breeders to find out if the breed is a good fit for you.

Number one.

Cavalier King Charles Spaniel

This gentle, affectionate Cavalier King Charles Spaniel is known for being adaptable and good with all sorts of people — from young children to the elderly.

The Cav is very trainable and open with strangers.

While they do need regular grooming and an average amount of exercise, they are overall a low-maintenance breed.

Number two.

Boxer

While they are instinctive guardians, the Boxer loves to be with his people.

One of the breed’s most notable characteristics is its desire for human affection, especially from children.

They are patient and spirited with children, but also protective, making them a popular choice for families.

The Boxer requires little grooming but needs daily exercise.

Number three.

English Springer Spaniel

The English Springer Spaniel possesses the “eager to please” attitude common to most spaniels.

Cheerful and affectionate, Springers love their families and like to stick close to their owners.

They make excellent house pets, but require daily exercise and need regular brushing and trimming to keep their coats neat and free of mats.

Number four.

Papillon

The Papillon is a small, friendly toy dog with a fine-boned structure.

They are known to be happy and alert little dogs that are not shy or aggressive.

Papillons are a happy breed whether living in an apartment, out in the country, or anywhere in between.

They love to play outdoors, but they can be easily entertained and exercised indoors as well.

Number five.

Poodle.

The Poodle is an exceptionally smart breed that excels in dog sports activities.

The breed comes in three size varieties, which may contribute to why the Poodle is one of the most popular breeds.

The Poodle can accommodate nearly any size of living quarters.

Their nearly hypoallergenic coat may reduce allergic reactions, but requires grooming knowledge to keep maintained.

Number six.

Shih Tzu

The Shih Tzu makes a great companion and house pet, with a lively and friendly attitude.

They require minimal exercise and their long, luxurious coat can be kept in a “puppy cut” to keep maintenance easier.

Number seven.

Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier.

A medium-sized breed, the Wheaten Terrier is happy, steady, self-confident, and alert to his surroundings.

Wheatens tend to be less scrappy than other terriers but they are true terriers and will be more active than many other breeds, enjoying plenty of exercises every day.

They relate well to children and can adapt to city, country, and suburban life.

The Wheaten is single-coated and sheds minimally, but needs regular grooming to keep its coat mat-free.

Number eight.

Whippet

Although Whippets like to run, most of the time they make excellent house dogs.

They are quiet while hanging out in the living room at home, often spending most of the day sleeping.

Their natural attachment to people makes them happiest when kept as house pets.

The breed is friendly to visitors and good with well-trained children!

Number nine.

Labrador Retriever

The Lab has been the most popular breed in the U.S. for 30 straight years for a reason!

This intensely loyal and affectionate breed is great with kids, is extremely trainable, and is friendly with strangers.

The Labrador Retriever does best in an active household where they can both run and cuddle.
