Golden Retriever

This large dog breed is known for exhibiting a docile yet playful temperament, as well as being very welcoming to both family members and visitors. While this makes them lousy guard dogs, they are one of the best dog breeds to have around small children due to their patient and loving natures.

Golden Retrievers are excellent listeners and relatively easy to train. They remain playful and bubbly well into their adult years and are very sociable around humans as well as other dogs. While they do require attention, this is a low-maintenance dog breed that is perfectly suited to young families.
