If you’re in the market for a dog, but don’t know what breed is right for you, you’ve come to the right place! Whether you adopt or shop, there are so many breeds that fit a certain lifestyle and have the potential to become your best friend. Keep reading if you’re not sure where to start, and see which might be right for you.
Beagle
If you’re in the market for a calm and cuddly dog that will be your best and loyal friend, a beagle may just be the one for you. These dogs are mid size, great for apartment living, but require a lot of love, attention, and training—otherwise they will eat anything in sight! We recommend a beagle for someone who works from home, or has a hybrid work schedule, and is looking for calmer, gentler dog that is not too big.
Maltese
If you’re looking for small, lovable, and hypoallergenic dog if you’re allergic or like to keep your home pristine, than this dog may be for you. They are playful, without being overly energetic and requiring lots of exercise. They are also sweet, soft, and affectionate.
Golden Retriever
Golden Retrievers are sweet and loyal, and make excellent family dogs if you have small kids. They require a family with a rather active lifestyle as they can be quite energetic, and need to be trained a lot.
Australian Sheppards
Aussies are loyal and energetic dogs that need to be exercised. If you’re an active person and enjoy running, long walks, and hikes, then you should look into an Aussie.
