Dog Trainer Reveals Eight Best Breeds For Owners With Kids

Anyone who has ever had dogs will tell you, it is absolutely not easy to choose the perfect breed for homes with kids. Unfortunately, sometimes it's complicated – no matter how many people we ask for guidance. But while we can't easily get the right answers from people who have little experience with dogs, there are some experts we can turn to while searching for the perfect breed for families with kids.

Dog trainer (@southenddogtraining1) has taken to TikTok to reveal the eight best breeds for owners with kids.

Sharing a clip on the social media platform, @southenddogtraining1 revealed the eight breeds he would recommend for families. First up, the expert recommends Golden Retrievers as the best breed for people with kids.

The dog trainer says: “Probably the friendliest, most sociable dog on the planet, fantastic with children.”

“Very soft, very gentle, but is also active enough that you can go away on holidays, trips to the beach etc.”

He then revealed his other top canine choices for when you have young kids.

“Other dog breeds that are notoriously good with children are the Staffordshire Bull Terrier, the Border Terrier, Greyhound, St Bernard, Newfoundland, Bernese Mountain Dog, Leonberger to name a few,” he continues.

He also added in the comments that he’d forgotten to add Boxers and Labradors to the list.

He also had some top tips for successfully introducing a dog into your family.

The expert says: “Make sure that you teach your children that dogs aren’t climbing frames and make sure you teach your children to leave the dogs alone when they are eating and sleeping.”

“Teach your child to be respectful of the dog, teach your dog to be respectful of your child.”

Many people said they agreed with his list, with one saying: “i actually recommend golden retriever to anyone getting a dog because i have one.”

Another added: “100% staffys, the nanny breed.”

The Real Risks: Weighing Vaccine Side Effects vs. Deadly Diseases

Some dog owners express concern about vaccine risks. Meanwhile, preventable diseases continue to pose a documented threat. For example, a two-year pause in dog rabies vaccination campaigns in Haiti resulted in a five to eightfold increase in animal rabies cases within a single year, creating a public health crisis that required an emergency response. This event illustrates a central fact: the dangers of vaccine-preventable diseases are quantifiably greater than the known risks associated with vaccination. This article will address concerns about vaccine safety by examining the precise nature of both vaccine risks and disease threats, using verifiable data to support informed decision-making for your dog's health. The Biological Impossibility of Canine Autism The claim that vaccines cause autism in dogs is not supported by veterinary science due to fundamental biological reasons.

Your Anti-Scam Checklist: How to Safely Find a Pet Online Without Getting Heartbroken

In 2023, the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) received over 5,000 complaints specifically categorized as pet scams, with reported losses exceeding $3.5 million. This is not a niche crime but an organized criminal enterprise that systematically targets compassion. This guide provides a procedural defense based on data from the FBI IC3, the Better Business Bureau (BBB), and law enforcement advisories. Execute these steps in sequence. The Foundational Principles First, internalize these three principles: 1. Price Signals Legitimacy.

Any listing significantly below the established market value is a primary indicator of fraud. 2. Trust Requires Verification. A legitimate breeder or seller expects and welcomes due diligence. Any resistance to scrutiny is a valid reason to terminate contact. 3. Urgency Enable...

5 Must-Ask Questions Before You Leave Your Dog at the Groomer

A 2022 study in the Journal of Veterinary Behavior noted that over 50% of dogs show signs of stress during grooming. While severe physical injuries are less common, a single preventable incident is one too many. Cases like those in Louisiana, where dogs received ocular chemical burns from misused shampoo at a licensed facility, demonstrate that a groomer’s marketing claims are not a guarantee of safety. Your dog’s well-being depends on the protocols you cannot see. The only way to evaluate them is to ask direct, specific questions. The goal is not to create conflict, but to identify competence and build trust based on transparent practices. 1. “What is your exact step-by-step protocol for protecting my dog’s eyes during the bath?” The difference between a safe groom and a dangerous one lies in the specifics of execution. Indicator of a Professional “Before the bath, we apply a sterile, vet-approved ophthalmic ointment to lubricate the eyes and create a barrier against shampoo. We av...
