How to Choose the Best Dog Breed for Your Family

Here are the factors you should consider:

✔️Size: Do you prefer a small, medium, or large breed? Some thrive with compact lap dogs for travel and smaller living spaces, while others enjoy the larger breeds.

✔️Energy Level: High-energy pups like the Labrador Retriever or Australian Shepherd require lots of exercise, while the Pomeranian may prefer shorter walks. 

✔️Temperament: Some breeds, like the Golden Retriever and Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, are known for being affectionate and great with kids. 

✔️Allergies: If anyone in your family has allergies, hypoallergenic breeds might be the best option.
