Children like dogs and almost all dogs like children. In any case, some breeds of dogs are better suited to children and others less so.
Therefore, in this article by PeritoAnimal we will show you the best dog breeds for kids, as well as which ones are suitable for those children with a certain degree of hyperactivity, for those who need a guard dog or for those who are still babies.
Dogs for Hyperactive Children
Hyperactive children need to expend energy and have a play partner. Without a doubt, the two best breeds of dogs to be with children are the labrador it's the beagle.
O labrador has a lot of energy, is active, loves to play and is very affectionate with children. Furthermore, he is not aggressive and his patience and nobility is more than demonstrated. You like being with the family and will gain your child's trust and affection almost immediately. But remember that you need a house or a space in which to have fun and run, as these are puppies that need long walks and daily runs.
O beagle, in turn, would be the perfect breed for a smaller house, as it has the same attitude as the Labrador but is smaller in size. Beagles are playful, hyperactive puppies and their excessive energy will surpass that of the child. In addition to being very active, they are characterized by being easy to train and very calm when they've had their dose of daily activity. In this way, they will help your child to relax after a long session of running and playing.
Watchdogs for children
If we want the dog to babysit and not be so hyperactive, we're going to need a guard dog. Of all the available options that exist, the Boxer it's the Collie are considered as the best guard dogs for the little ones.
O Boxer it's a very playful breed and one that kids like, in fact, could be playing with them until the kids get tired. Despite his playful personality being a very positive factor to take into account when choosing the best breed for our child, the truth is that the Boxer stands out for its protective instinct and vigilant, as they will not let anything or anyone get close to your child without first warning. They protect their family and don't hesitate to be aggressive if necessary to take care of them.
In turn, the Collie it is a very familiar breed of dog, very large and with the protective instinct also well developed, which makes it a perfect guard dog. If you have a big house or a space for taking walks with him, he will be the perfect guard dog for your child because he is able to defend his own and protect them from any danger whatsoever. In fact, it's not convenient to let strangers approach you without warning because Collie doesn't like that attitude very much.
puppies for babies
If we want a specific dog for a baby that has just been born, we must look for other characteristics in them. Should be calm, peaceful and very patient dogs, because the children will play all kinds of games. At PeritoAnimal we consider that the best breeds for babies are the São Bernardo and the German Shepherd.

They are docile and protective dogs, which makes them easy to train and an authentic nanny who will take care of your little baby as well as you.
