Finding the right canine companion can be a hard choice especially if you have a family with small children. You may find a dog that you love, but if the dog doesn’t have a disposition that is compatible with children then it won’t be a good fit for either the dog or the child. Here’s a variety of canine breeds that are popular among families with small children: the Labrador Retriever, Bulldog, Golden Retriever, Beagle, Pug, Irish Setter, Newfoundland, French Bulldog, Collie, Wheaton Terrier, Weimaraner, Boxer, Poodle, Bichon Frise, Cocker Spaniel, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, and more.
