10 Cutest Dog Breeds - Most Adorable Dogs - Good Housekeeping
Top Cutest dog. Dogs are always adorable. Labrador Retriever, Golden Retriver, Irish Setter, Corgi, Beagle, Pomeranian, Saint Bernard, Australian Shepherd, German Shepherd, Sheltie are so cute.
All dogs are cute, but some breeds have that extra that
makes them irresistible. For this reason, some of these breeds are popular in
greeting cards, commercials and other marketing materials. These breeds
according to owners have the cutest dog.
You’re
ready to get a new dog and you’re trying to figure out which dog breed is the
best for you and your home. There are many different factors that you will want
to take into consideration when choosing a dog breed. You’ll want to think
about the size of the dog, whether it’s long-haired or short-haired and what
it’s typical life span and health are likely to be.
However,
I think that the most important thing to take into consideration when choosing
a dog is the temperament that is associated with the breed that you are
choosing. Although there are some people who will want a dog that tends to be
more aggressive, usually because they are using the dog as protection for their
property, the average dog owner is probably going to want to get a dog with a
mild temperament.
For
that reason, it is best for all people to look first at those dog breeds that
have been identified as being best for families with small children. Even if
you don’t have children (or even anyone else living with you in your home)
these dogs tend to be great companion animals. They are loving and kind, they
get along with guests that come to the home and they are typically easy to
train.
1.Labrador
Retriever
This is a really laidback kind of dog that
tends to get along with other dogs and pets fairly easily. The one negative
thing that people say about this dog is that it can be a picky eater but that
may be a small thing to deal with in comparison to some of the other dog
problems that are out there!

strangers.

3. Irish Setter.
The
Irish Setter is a dog that, like the Golden Retriever actually, was originally
a hunting dog. Over time it has changed to be a dog that is often associated
with being a family dog. The main reason that this dog is loved by
families is that it’s a really accommodating dog. It truly wants to please
people so it’s fairly easy to train and definitely easy to love. It’s also a
really beautiful dog!

5. Beagle
The first thing that I
have to say about this dog is that I think it’s one of the cutest dog breeds
out there! It’s not always considered to be a family dog because it’s a really
active breed. The beagle is a dog that wants to be out and about. But if you
have the kind of home that is active and you’re willing to get outside and play
with your dog a lot then a beagle can be a really terrific companion to have
around. You certainly won’t be bored with a dog like this. The one drawback is
that they tend to chew things up so you will have to invest time in training if
you get this dog.
