The Best Breeds for Therapy Dogs

Despite every dog having a unique personality, they are generally friendly and can provide comfort to us, humans. But that doesn’t mean all canine breeds are good therapy dogs. Some are easily trained while others have a calmer temperament.

Retrievers - The Golden and Labrador Retrievers are the most common dog breeds for a majority of canine work. It’s because they are very friendly to people, other dogs, and are easily trained.

Border Collie - Originally bred to be shepherds, the border collie is a highly energetic and people-pleasing dog. A combination that works best for comforting a multitude of people in a single day.

Beagle - This small dog breed is the most popular among children and seniors in schools, hospitals, and care homes due to its calm and playful nature.

Pomeranian - Cute, intelligent, and obedient. The Pomeranian is the perfect choice for those seeking a cozy companion. Why? Because this dog breed looks like it’s always asking for a cuddle.
