Dear god beagle would be the last dog i would recommend as an easy breed. They are smart amazing animals but need huge amounts of exercise, ive seen them eat through a wall to get into a room they wanted into
Yeah, I kind'a knew where this one was gonna go when the Beagle came up. The vid also blows over the inherent problems that the "dwarf" breeds like Basset hounds have with hips and such, or the fact that Schnauzers are known to have neurological problems and seizures. Anyway, the best bet is always to do your research on any breed you're thinking about, paying attention to both their general disposition and known medical problems. Because I can assure you, like human medical bills, veterinarian bills can get out of hand very quickly. ( Once spent $1200 on surgery for a Great Dane/Mastiff mix who'd twisted her stomach playing with the other dogs, less than a month after I got her. BOTH breeds tend to have that problem, as well a s Bloat. )
I was going to say this. I don’t think these lists take into account the potential health problems of the dogs. It’s also sickening that while breeders of larger spitz muzzle dogs are trying to breed out issues like hip displasia breeders of the small flat nosed dogs are trying to breed in sever respiratory issues. It borders on animal abuse.
@@rebeccaanne9863 I agree fully. So many breeders are producing cute little French Bulldogs which are the result of close inbreeding just to make money. There's no thought about the health of the dogs they sell.
@@here_we_go_again2571 Friend of mine rescued an Akita. Apart from the smell she is nasty with most other dogs, has skin problems with the wrinkles and eye problems. Given away because the owners decided too many problems and were going to euthanized.
French bulldogs, Pugs and Bulldogs have serious health problems due to being bracycephalic. Definitely a very bad choice. This is a very bad list for that reaon
Agreed, this list feels like it was just thrown together. The Labrador is a fantastic dog but the narrator didn't talk about hip dysplasia, or their activity level. Labs love to run and want walks and this guy was like "easiest breed!". Meanwhile breeds like English mastiff aren't on the list for some reason when people who might want a dog that isnt super active but great with family, and a great watch dog is a huge win for some. Same with great Danes. Those breeds do have genetic predispositions but a lot of dogs do. The beagle is a great breed but they do love to bark and if you haven't heard a beagle bark you're in for a shocker and so might be your neighbors. They also follow their noses into everything so they might dig of get into a lot of things so becareful with that.
English bulldogs are amongst the worst; I have a relative who bred them. Eye surgeries, skin issues, seizures, bone spurs, etc. and you better have floaties on them if they are in the water. The list maker definitely failed here.
I work at a dog day care, I meet multiple dogs of these breeds every week. Here is my Ted talk Disclaimer Purebred does not always mean well bred. If going to a breeder ask if they did genetic health testing for good hips, elbows and eyes. These tests are expensive but important when preventing hipdysplasia in puppies and other inheritable diseases. If they are charging alot without proof of testing they are a puppy mill or backyard breeder (run away) Bulldogs and Pugs: get one from a good breeder. Many I see are backyard bred genetic disasters with expensive vet Bill (occasionally snippy) Schnauzer: they can be barky and protective, positive socializing is important. They grow fur so socializing with a groomer is important. Labrador, avoid making them overweight (avoid making any dog overweight if you want them to live longer) Many older overweight labs get bad arthritis or damage their ACL (requires surgery to fix) French bulldog : get one from a good breeder: many I meet have poor conformation (bone structure) that can make walking and breathing difficult. A healthy frenchie is very feisty and playful. Mutt: (could be a good dog, could be a wildcard) look into its mix, an Akita x Malinois will be and extremely energetic, possibly aggressive mix, and wouldn't be easy to handle. It's a misconception that a mixed dog will magically get rid of health issues. Two purebreds that carry hip dysplasia will still give hip dysplasia to their mutt puppies. Many mutts come from backyard breeders who do not know about health testing. Ask the owner if they genetically tested their dogs for inhertitble diseases and gave the parents parasite prevention. Any dog coming from a "backyard breeder" has a higher chance of illness and these types of breeders are what overwhelms pet shelters every year. Shelter dogs can be good dogs, ask your local shelter to help you find a dog right for you, if you are getting a puppy look into a reputable breeder. It's a myth that Show Dog breeders fill shelters. You will never find a Dog Show Champion at a shelter. They even write their dogs into their wills if the owner dies. (Good luck everyone, and remember, the most important part of a dog is to train it and love it, and don't forget to cut their nails, it prevents health issues)
For most dog owners I strongly suggest avoiding a Basenji. Having owned and showed them for years I can definitely say they can be too much for a novice owner. They are extremely intelligent and hard to train. In Africa they are bred for a specific purpose, and it requires them to think and work independently of their owner on many occasions.
No they should not, the breed has many health issues, expensive ones too. For that reason its not a easy breed to own. Other than that, in my opinion, its the best breed. I love my golden, but would not say its easy to own him.
An Ow -- I can't believe you mentioned American Akitas! I was just thinking, swear, that they'd never include Akitas on the list because dog lists never do. I don't know why! I loved my Akita, heart and soul. What a fun character of a dog, and so incredibly smart. OK, she shed, but in summer I kept her shaved so we both got a break. Nikki was great with kids, even strange kids at the park. How I miss her. She died Christmas Eve, 2011. That was a terrible Christmas.
there is no such thing as an "easy" breed. The sooner we can ditch this idea, the sooner people will stop getting dogs with zero prior research and either abandoning them or ending up with an unhealthy or poorly behaved animal (newsflash: I work in dog boarding and the majority of "family dogs" are sweet but that's about all they have going for them. And it's always the labs and retrievers that are the most hyper). Yes I understand that some dog breeds require MORE experience as someone who works in a kennel, but the idea that any breed is "easy." is something we need to ditch. A dog is a high maintenance pet, and for the sake of the animal we need to stop peddling any idea to the contrary just to cater to the wishful thinking of people who want the benefit of a dog in their life but don't truly have the time, money, or lifestyle where they can *properly* take care of one.
So true! I have 2 cats and a dog and they are all a lot of work. Cats need attention and exercise, my dog needs daily walks and playtime. It drives me crazy when people think having companion animals is easy or all about having a cute, cuddly furry friend. Yes, they are wonderful companions (better than most humans imo!) but there are times you will be cleaning up their vomit at 2 am, or spend atrocious amounts of money on vet bills if they get sick or injured. They absolutely require a lot of attention, time and money.
This is SO true. While some breeds may be less demanding than others... the fact remains that we're talking about a living creature, who needs more from you than a handful of kibble, and the occasional pat on the head. The sad truth is... most people get a dog for entirely selfish reasons. They get a dog because THEY crave the companionship... but give little, if any, thought to the needs of the dog and thus, doom it to a depressing existence. This will be even worse when people choose a breed which requires a higher level of commitment (which they neither understand, nor have any intention of delivering) simply because the particular breed is "fashionable". Personally, I have lived for years now, without a dog (which would be welcome) in my life... because I don't feel that it would be fair to the dog, due to my work schedule, etc. I'm hoping that in the next year or so I can get my life rearranged enough to finally make room for a dog in it... but, if not, I won't get one. This video did mention one of the breeds I will consider when I feel I'm ready... the miniature schnauzer... which is "on my list" simply because of its more "flexible" personality traits.
My wife and I are dog trainers and when I see Beagle as the first dog I knew the list was no good. Too high a prey drive makes them want to chase every little critter. They are great hunting dogs, but can be a handful as a pet. The worst of the list though is the English Bulldog. I have one that we rescued because the owner didn't realize the work that goes into the breed. We have re-homed 4 bulldogs in just the last two years for this reason with 2 of them having to be re-homed more than once and not for behavioral issues. They need daily maintenance to stay healthy and even then end up needing to go to the vet multiple times a year. They can test even the most experienced dog owner, but if you have a good deal of free time to keep them healthy, are patient, prepared for a challenge, and have a decent bank account or credit card then they might be for you. I love my bulldog, he's my best buddy that is always by my side, and he is honestly my favorite of our 3 dogs that I all love, but he is a ton of nonstop work that 99% of dog owners aren't prepared for or don't have the patients and money to give them the care they need to stay healthy. Honestly I feel bad for them and think they shouldn't be bred, but that's our fault for making them so unhealthy just for their exaggerated features. PLEASE DON"T GET A BULLDOG UNLESS YOU UNDERSTAND FULLY THE CARE, TIME, AND MONEY THEY TAKE
I agree with your vet, for people that want just a pet, mutts are great, just rescue them from responsible shelters, or you can also find them on the steets
@@marilynguinnane4663 Crossbreeds are the latest craze Labradoodle (Labrador and Poodle) Cockapoo (Cocker Spaniel and Poodle) I don't think that breeding an inbred breed to another inbred breed will be a guarantee of health or temperment.
I got a mongrel that was due to be sent to the pound she looked allmost 99% golden ret (her mum was pedigree golden ret..father alsation mix possibly) By the look of mum she was for breeding pure golden ret ..but had snuck out one night and got too familiar with a dog from the wrong side of the track and bought shame down on the faimly someone had pissed in the gene pool lol))But my mongrel from that mum had cancer and strangley all the other pups in her litter also had the same fate...I came to conclusion that they are very overbred think too much pedigree in there .
@@fujiwara478hp The English Bulldog's ancestors were as frightful as many of the mastiff guard breeds. But the current EB was bred to be cute and cuddly. However they do have times when they zoom around the room, like pudgy rockets!. And, they can be difficult to train because they are very stubborn. (When they are done with their walk, they are done with their walk!) Also, they are such lovers that they want just about everyone (including a small child) to be their personal velcro attachment -- Even if that small child (or frail old lady) is used as a cushion by them. -- Ooof!
I didn't like that because mutt is not a breed. They can mention mixed breeds but don't list them as a breed. The list is wrong anyway from start to finish.
I have had 4 “mutts” my current lad(lurcher-greyhound,whippet,staff terrier and saluki) is the brightest lad Ive ever had he was adopted at 7months having been through 4 previous homes. The fist 6 months were difficult but at nearly 2 years with us he is just the best dog. Only thing is we cant leave him home alone but thats because im always home or take him with me when i go out.
"Mutt"?! When a SNIDE person I worked with called my dog a mutt, I went all "politically correct" on her and said, "Excuse me. He is a representative of ancestral diversity." That shut her up. My dog and I were at the park when a woman approached me and asked "what kind of dog" (breed) he was. I started to explain that actually he had been a stray... ... but then she interrupted me to ask, "Is he full-blooded?" A full-blooded stray? I didn't know how to answer a person who would ask such a question.
My friend had two beagles, dumb as planks, always chewing things, and when they caught a scent, they were long gone and too dumb to find their way home.
So glad you included them ‘mutt’ in this list! I love mongrels, less likely to poor health, often intelligent and trainable. I love ‘mutts’. AKA mongrels.
@@ladduthegoldenlab4165 *Time is the big issue with dogs.* Dogs do not do well when they are left alone for hours. Dogs, (unlike cats) are pack/herd/ community creatures. Also, ideally, the top ("alpha") member of the pack should be the owner(s) Some dogs and some breeds of dogs are dominate by nature. There is nothing wrong with spending money if you have the disposible income to do so. But pets, all pets require nutritious food, regular grooming and medical care. Some breeds (in particular the "flat-faced"/brachycephalic dog breeds) have problems breathing. Also, "popular" (i.e. inbred) lines of dogs have herditary health issues. English Bulldogs, Pugs, some "Minature" breeds and American Cocker Spaniels are just a few of the dog breeds with major ($$$) health issues.
What nonsense comment is this? We all know how much dedication it takes to own any dog breed and take care of it. The idea of this video is to name those breeds which are easier to handle for beginners compared to other breeds
Its almost a joke video. Can you imagine someone who has never owned a dog getting some of these breeds? Their houses would be trashed and they would be crying trying to get the dogs to stop barking or howling. Most of these dogs need someone who knows what they are doing with them.
My first family dog was a black lab and oh boy I love him so much but he’s a furry butthole. He’s destroyed so many things over the years (from eating the basement stairs, multiple cellphones to family heirlooms) and he’s stubborn as all holy hell. Sheds like crazy and gives my parents so much attitude! He’s now 11 and he’s my sweet little groaning grump now 😊
@Christie Woods I got myself a dog pet during the heat of the pandemic,I was nervous too,but now I'm happy and I'm so loving mish my dog pet. You'll be fine. I got mine through an online pet store.
@@petra3336 Goodnews! That's really lovely,I want a dog pet too but I've been so busy and stuck up lately,I guess I'll have to use an online pet store, that will get it delivered to me at my doorstep.
@Christie Woods Not bad I think; I bought two pitbulls too during the lock downs, from an Online pet store, through their sales personnel. I suggest you try buying from an online pet store since you don't have luxury of time to go out and buy one.

I have a Staffy--I've had 12 dogs over my lifetime and believe me had I even know about the Staffy way back when I would have become a breeder. She is 100% beautiful in every way. Calm, just nosy enough, loving, a walker, a sleeper, a cuddler, you name she everything except she is NOT a biter, a barker, a messy critter. We sleep nose to nose.
I love Bulldogs I really do but the negatives with their health and the sheer cost for potentially a very low life length makes them a heartbreak breed as bad as the huge Irish wolfhounds and great Danes
Boston Terrier! One of the sweetest dog breeds in my opinion. Very easily trained, smart, requires minimum grooming, friendly, and good with other pets (in my experience). On the down side, they get too hot easily in warmer temps.
Bulldog, Pug, Frenchie .... yeah really easy to own with all the breathing issues (not).... Or the Basset with skin,eyes,ear and bone problems. First time that i disagree with your ranking.
Yup, I have a Huskey as my third dog. She was very difficult to train. I thought I was good at training dogs, but she put me to the test. It took a while, but I got her to where she needed to be. I do not recommend for a first dog.
@@iamright3826 Huskies are stubborn And, if its not hot outside; they take off like a streak (and can run for miles) I wouldn't trust a husky around small animals (cats, chickens guina pigs)
Here_We_Go_Again2 I have a half husky half german shepherd and i thought he was going to have a normal amount of energy but he just wants to run 24/7 💀
I've been a rescuer of Basset for 20 years. You literally got everything wrong but one. Yes they are easy going and like people. They are massively prone to cysts which can cost $500 each to have removed, and they must be removed to see if they are cancerous which is another thing thet are prone too. East to train they are not. You have to use their sense of smell to get their attention. If your down wind you end up chasing them, because Bassets suffer from convenience deafness, if it's not convenient, they are deaf. They must smell the treat, but once they discover you have treats they will harass you. They require a firm hand, patience, and the ability to go from stern to encouraging in one breath because they are easily cowed by humans. Yes they do get along with other dogs. NO they are not lazy or low energy. It must have been Hollywood that taught you that. If you don't put 2 to 3 MILES on them at least 5 days a week they developed behaviour problems. They are a HUNTING HOUND. They can go all day with 1/2 to 1 hour breaks 3 to 5 times a day. I've had Bassets launch from 12' feet away and hit me in the chest knocking me and chair ass over teakettle. Low energy? Lazy? They are only as lazy as their parent human is. He wants to be with you at all times. So, if your a couch potato so will he be. You really should check with a reputable breed rescue that's got at least ten years rescuing.
I hope new were nervous dog owners do not take this video seriously as to what dog they should start out with. Because most of the ones on this list are definitely not beginner dogs.
Jen get a dog that is at a shelter pls pugs are great dogs but they have medical problems or a Boston terrier is a great dog and if u want a big dog a Great Dane or a greyhound would be a great choice
I have a rescue dog that it 37.5% chihuahua, 12.5% Shih Tzu, 12.5% miniature poodle, 12.5% cocker spaniel, and 12.5% breed groups which were companion, terrier, and hound. (We did a DNA test.) I love her to pieces and don't want anything more. She has had zero health problems and is super smart as well as a little snuggle bug on the couch. She knows how to sit pretty, bow, give kisses, heel, jump on my back, some agility, and the basic commands. She is also excellent in public when she traveled on a plane. I love my mutt!
I Am Tammy-Sue yeah my sister owns a frenchie and she will tell you right away they may be cute but they cost a butt load even if you just have to get the procedures they need your done like five grand and that dosent include the cost of buying one, she had to save up for years to buy one. but she is very blunt when people ask her about him and owning him she always tells them what a big cost he is and everything his breed needs to just be healthy, and although she loves him dearly if she had it to do over she might not have gotten him to begin with
"Mutt" and the Lab are the only 2 choices I agree with here. The others, such as the Bulldog and Schnauzer have a number of genetic problems they're prone to. In the past 20 years, I've owned nearly a dozen dogs, and the healthiest and easiest to deal with have always been the mixed breeds, with the Labs coming in a close second.
Schnoodles are pretty healthy as they are a new designer breed. This is subject to change however as inbreeding by greedy bad breeders will mess the breed up genetically.
Mixed breed labs aren't a good idea out in the country. Pure Labs have no interest in chasing livestock if they get out. Several Lab poodle crosses and similar have been shot locally for attacks on sheep.
I agree with you, begals are also difficult dogs to own they turn deaf once their nose hits the floor bassits have issues with barking eye and back problems, labs bite people more than any other breed also finding a well bred lab is extremely difficult and although they are easy to train people often expect them to train themselves
Was so happy to see you put the mutt at number 1. I have always had mutts and always will. Some of them I knew the breeds, but most of them it was a best guess. All of them have been wonderful dogs and all of them lived long healthy lives.
Smooth Coat Dachshunds are easy to own (depending on their personality). They are very clean and need no grooming except for a nail trim every now and then. You must watch how much you feed them though and give them plenty of playtime/exercise. 😊
ViralBe I'm scared of dogs as I was bitten by a German shepherd when I was younger, it approached me and I freaked out (10 years old). How can I over come my fear of dogs as I panic and shake when a dog approaches me thinking it's going to bite me (especially large dogs). How can I overcome this phobia as I want to get a dog like a German shepherd, Rottweiler. Do you think it is a wise idea or not ? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks for video.
My standard poodle is the best breed I have ever own. Grooming every 6 weeks is a small price to pay for such a fine animal. She is smart, athletic and graceful like no other breed I have ever had!
I agree. I have a standard poodle too. He is by far the best. All the grooming is a buzz kill. He gets a bath once, sometimes twice a week and I do his grooming. But he is so worth it.
Ok my mother had beagle it wasnt sociable at all, most vicious dog i ever encountered was a black lab and I own an Americna Akita who is the most lovable easy maintaince dog ive ever owned as long as you train them. Basically it depends on wether they have been properly socialised as pups and properly trained also and that is the same for any breed.
I have an Akita pitbull cross that is one of the best dogs I have ever had. But I had a purebred Akita that was wonderful but could get pretty dominant when I still had small kids. I rehomed him to a lady that had a female and is was just heaven for him. They are great just not for homes with small children.
I have a 8 yo basset hound not sure who made this list, they are stubborn, not so easy to train (unless they want to) no where as easy as a lab or retreiver to own, they can be a big medium size dog as mine is 72lbs now. They are great dogs and worth the effort, but I would never say easy.
Well although you did'nt have it in your Top 10, I was still amazed and surprised to see an Alaskan Malamute in your pictures. I have a 7 month old male and a 5 year old Staffordshire Bull Terrier. I knew all about Malamutes before getting one, but for anyone who doesn't, it's a little misleading having a photo in your promotion. Just saying. Thanks.
A beagle will follow his nose anywhere. Good luck keeping him home. A shelty is a yip yip dog. Good luck with the grooming and hair all over your house . A bull dog lives 6 years has numerous health problems. A pug has numerous health problems. Basset Hound have a strong hound odor A schnauzer is a strong willed barker. A Labrador retriever, is a high energy dog, good luck with the hair all over the house. Italian gray hound, ugly. French bull dog, cute, tons of health problems. Mutt, go rescue one. The USA puts down 1.2 million dogs a year. Give one a home and save a life.
I can't _believe_ you said IG's are _ugly._ They don't like to outside when it's raining; they will chase an appealing scent to Greenland and back. But ugly? Never. And they are the most appealing snuggle-bunnies in creation.
Not always. It highly depends. sometimes pure breeds are healthiest cause the breeders do very careful selecting. And often the dogs on shelters will have some sort of a disease from when they got rescued that maybe will be hard to cure
Beagles have a huge hunting instinct what makes them not easy outside when not good trained. Pugs, Bulldogs and French Bulldogs have health problems caused by genetics so their not an easy breed
@@pythonprofreak7522 My brother had a Bassett named Earl. One of the quirkiest, funniest and very loving dogs I have ever known! He absolutely adored my brother! He did not have the hip/back problems some Bassetts do.
They're great dogs, but they're also huge. Not the best for smaller living spaces. And some jurisdictions in other parts of the world don't even allow large dogs (or at least won't issue a license for them).
I love ur vids!! I watch ur vids from da start of 2019 and i acually leaned alot of stuff about dogs and also their 'backgrounds' U made me pick the correct breed for me and my family! Ty
Have a 10 year old dear head chihuahua ,she loves to sleep and loves kids good watch dog . And not a noisy barker or aggressive. She does like to be carried.
While Italian greyhounds made this list, adopting an ex-racing Greyhound in my humble opinion is a much better choice. You get a house trained companion that needs little exercise and will be a constant companion.
I would not reccomend a Basset as they are difficult to house train and love to escape and take themselves off hunting.Also pugs have problems breathing in hot weather due to selective breeding for appearance over functionality
I really don’t recommend getting a shelter dog if you’re a beginner, I know I sound like a jerk right now but shelter dogs come with emotional and psychological baggage that a beginner may not know how to handle leading to the dog being rehomed again or abused/neglected
I have a French Bulldog and I wouldn’t say they are an “easy” dog. My dog has quite the hygiene regimen, medications and strict diet. This year alone I have spent $2,000 on his medical care and that does not include a $4,000 surgery scheduled in July. They are amazing dogs but, I knew nothing about this breed as he was a gift. I definitely wish I knew more about the breed before I was gifted him!
Could you imagine someone telling you, before you got the bulldog, that this is one of the "top ten easiest dogs to care for"? It's pretty irresponsible. This is how dogs get abandoned or given up...My mother bred English Bulldogs and I she had a pretty strict checklist, for the buyer, before she would ever sell one. They are not "easy".
Some of them are, for example, miniature schnauzers and pugs are very easy dogs to own. BUT, there are deffinetly some dogs on this list that i do not agree with.
I got another dog a while ago off of Craigslist and they had no idea what mix of breeds it was. The dog is the most cuddly nice dog I’ve ever had he is also smart enough to be trained and hasn’t had any health problems. I also have a Pomeranian chihuahua mix that has had cancer but it was caught early and dental issues but that dog is also very nice and energetic too when around my other dog.
My pug actually stole the show in a musical we both were in. Opening night he escaped from back stage and ran on to the stage at curtain call. I basically had a heart attack because I was apart of the first group bowing when he ran across the stage.
Basset Hound easy to train? My chloe flunked puppy kindergarten 3 times and I ended up getting a personal trainer who had 100% success in his career.....Chloe broke that record and he’s now at 99%. She was very sweet though, but extremely stubborn.
AmStaff is a super easy dog. I got mine at the shelter thinking he was a pit mix. He's mellow and loves people more than any dog I've ever had. Good to train, smart, and takes direction very well. He is a spaz though.
As I was watching this video, I was shaking my head at every single breed.. not easy, any of them, they all have their own issues. I'm glad I made it to the end, because YES mutts are by far the easiest breed. Fewer health issues, better temperment, and you can tell by looking at them which ones will be easy to care for with grooming and if they're active type or chilled out. People should only get a "breed" if they plan on breeding, or using them for their original intent (like herding breeds). 100 reasons to go to a shelter. It's not just to save a dog.
That's true about smart dogs. I have German shepherds. When you see them in movies or on rin tin tin they are stoic, well behaved dogs that are easy to train but in reality they are really high maintenance and demand a lot of attention. Belgian malinois are even more needy. Both breeds are trained easily but also have a lot of energy and curiosity to go with all that intelligence. This can lead to dogs getting into things they shouldn't. I love the breed but not for everybody. Both my dogs are rescues because people got them thinking they would be low maintenance guard dogs you can keep chained up in the backyard, and surrendered them when they wouldn't stop barking. No shit they barked, wouldn't you if you were imprisoned in a hot california back yard with no companionship? They aren't goldfish.
One of the most vicious dog fights I ever witnessed was between a beagle and a young pitbull. The beagle held his own. We couldn't get them apart. Finally the pitbulls owner came out with some gloves and a club and beat them apart. Beagles can be very mean.
@@Rick-wn5oh nope , it’s just a more affective and safer method of breaking up a dog fight. It’s good advise. Either use it or don’t. The sarcasm is unnecessary.
@@chasethewhiterabbits So you admit you know nothing about pit bulls. Not all dogs quit fighting when squirted with water. Besides they were in a pen 200 feet from the nearest source of water. He ran out there trying to save that one of the dogs lives. So maybe you should hold off making comments until you know all the details.
@@Rick-wn5oh nope I didn’t say that either. You keep putting words in my mouth instead of asking , you make statements. Not really the best way to gain information . You seem to want to be aggressive no matter what . So I’ll let you go with it . I wasn’t trying to ruin your comment /story. It was advise. Obviously in this scenario a water hose wasn’t an available option. And for reference I own 2 Am staff terriers. ( the only “Pitt bull”breed recognized by AKC ). However this doesn’t make me an “expert” nor does it mean I “ know nothing about Pitt bulls”.
Borders are the worst! Unless they have a job and someone with them all the time, they are a bad choice! They are not good city dogs, get bored easily and will bite if not socialized. They become obcessive if they aren't exercised daily. Never teach them to fetch a ball, or that is all They will do. They heat stroke easily, are cold area dogs, unless they are shaved and they are high upon the list for cancer. If you live in a area that has ticks and fleas, you must check them and keep them treated against infestation. They are prone to skin allergies. I've had them, worked and trained them with livestock. That is the only place a Border Collie should be allowed! High upkeep also. Do not encourage people who don't know Borders to get them.
I have a cross breed dog named Theo, he's half Jack Russell and half Shih tzu. He's an amazing little guy and I cannot imagine my teenage years without him. He loves to for walks (45 mins - 1h 30 long) but he loves to snuggle under the covers in the morning too. But he DOES NOT LIKE THE POSTMAN OR THE BINMAN
Italian Greyhounds are anything but graceful. They do everything like their life depends on it; cuddling, playing, running around.. And they look completely derpy while they do it. They're wonderful though, at least the few that I've known.
I like mutts but they arent a breed. Also, one of your qualifications in the beginning was health and then you put pugs and Bulldogs on the list. Kinda confusing But, no Boxer? No Staffie? 😥
Nathan, Unfortunately, the Boxer dog has health issues. And most only live to be around 10-12 years. Also, until they are about 5 years old, they need a lot of exercise. Staffie and AmStaffs are two breeds (as well as the Boxer) that can be problematic. But if they are from good stock and have been properly socialized; they can make good pets. My personal opinion is that a family with children should not re-home these breeds unless it is a dog that they are very familiar (e.g. A neighbor moves away and you've interacted with the dog)
Lots of respect for listing mutt as #1..all my dogs I've ever owned are rescues. They all tend to be in the GS family but certainly mixed. My newest guy is apparently a potcake dog. Super intelligent, gets bored very quickly so requires constant stimulation which has been great with training as he loves to work for treat or toy.
I miss my Shi Tzu so much. Easiest dog to train I ever had. He had very low energy and would self feed without over eating. Mine was always the right weight and had no food guarding at all. Very outgoing, calm and rarely barked. Would sit next to me or others but not a lap baby. Took to commands easily. My neighbors Shi Tzu was a nightmare and I wouldn't give him house room ever. The BIG problem is grooming. Be sure they have a trust fund so they can get weekly visits and 1x a month major overhaul. Leave room for tips.
@@stevepopplewell7079 - *can* destroy an apartment. That's certainly not my experience. My dog would only chew on something if I specifically gave it to her.
Dear god beagle would be the last dog i would recommend as an easy breed. They are smart amazing animals but need huge amounts of exercise, ive seen them eat through a wall to get into a room they wanted into
And can scale and escape an enclosed fence or kennel or dog run if they smell something
Yes thank you!
Yeah, I kind'a knew where this one was gonna go when the Beagle came up.
The vid also blows over the inherent problems that the "dwarf" breeds like Basset hounds have with hips and such, or the fact that Schnauzers are known to have neurological problems and seizures.
Anyway, the best bet is always to do your research on any breed you're thinking about, paying attention to both their general disposition and known medical problems.
Because I can assure you, like human medical bills, veterinarian bills can get out of hand very quickly. ( Once spent $1200 on surgery for a Great Dane/Mastiff mix who'd twisted her stomach playing with the other dogs, less than a month after I got her.
BOTH breeds tend to have that problem, as well a s Bloat. )
Ur lazy
And the beagle’s non-stop howling ...!
Flat faced dogs (ie bulldogs etc) have notorious breathing problems especially if bred at a puppy farm. Choose wisely or expect expensive vet bills.
Flat-faced dogs also have digestive issues;
the farts are almost lethal ;).
I was going to say this. I don’t think these lists take into account the potential health problems of the dogs. It’s also sickening that while breeders of larger spitz muzzle dogs are trying to breed out issues like hip displasia breeders of the small flat nosed dogs are trying to breed in sever respiratory issues. It borders on animal abuse.
@@rebeccaanne9863 I agree fully. So many breeders are producing cute little French Bulldogs which are the result of close inbreeding just to make money. There's no thought about the health of the dogs they sell.
@@here_we_go_again2571 Friend of mine rescued an Akita. Apart from the smell she is nasty with most other dogs, has skin problems with the wrinkles and eye problems. Given away because the owners decided too many problems and were going to euthanized.
French bulldogs, Pugs and Bulldogs have serious health problems due to being bracycephalic. Definitely a very bad choice. This is a very bad list for that reaon
Agreed, this list feels like it was just thrown together. The Labrador is a fantastic dog but the narrator didn't talk about hip dysplasia, or their activity level. Labs love to run and want walks and this guy was like "easiest breed!". Meanwhile breeds like English mastiff aren't on the list for some reason when people who might want a dog that isnt super active but great with family, and a great watch dog is a huge win for some. Same with great Danes. Those breeds do have genetic predispositions but a lot of dogs do.
The beagle is a great breed but they do love to bark and if you haven't heard a beagle bark you're in for a shocker and so might be your neighbors. They also follow their noses into everything so they might dig of get into a lot of things so becareful with that.
English bulldogs are amongst the worst; I have a relative who bred them. Eye surgeries, skin issues, seizures, bone spurs, etc. and you better have floaties on them if they are in the water. The list maker definitely failed here.
yes. true
What's that
I was just gonna comment same thing but I'm happy to see that someone did before me.
I work at a dog day care, I meet multiple dogs of these breeds every week. Here is my Ted talk
Disclaimer Purebred does not always mean well bred. If going to a breeder ask if they did genetic health testing for good hips, elbows and eyes. These tests are expensive but important when preventing hipdysplasia in puppies and other inheritable diseases. If they are charging alot without proof of testing they are a puppy mill or backyard breeder (run away)
Bulldogs and Pugs: get one from a good breeder. Many I see are backyard bred genetic disasters with expensive vet Bill (occasionally snippy)
Schnauzer: they can be barky and protective, positive socializing is important. They grow fur so socializing with a groomer is important.
Labrador, avoid making them overweight (avoid making any dog overweight if you want them to live longer) Many older overweight labs get bad arthritis or damage their ACL (requires surgery to fix)
French bulldog : get one from a good breeder: many I meet have poor conformation (bone structure) that can make walking and breathing difficult. A healthy frenchie is very feisty and playful.
Mutt: (could be a good dog, could be a wildcard) look into its mix, an Akita x Malinois will be and extremely energetic, possibly aggressive mix, and wouldn't be easy to handle. It's a misconception that a mixed dog will magically get rid of health issues. Two purebreds that carry hip dysplasia will still give hip dysplasia to their mutt puppies. Many mutts come from backyard breeders who do not know about health testing. Ask the owner if they genetically tested their dogs for inhertitble diseases and gave the parents parasite prevention. Any dog coming from a "backyard breeder" has a higher chance of illness and these types of breeders are what overwhelms pet shelters every year. Shelter dogs can be good dogs, ask your local shelter to help you find a dog right for you, if you are getting a puppy look into a reputable breeder. It's a myth that Show Dog breeders fill shelters. You will never find a Dog Show Champion at a shelter. They even write their dogs into their wills if the owner dies. (Good luck everyone, and remember, the most important part of a dog is to train it and love it, and don't forget to cut their nails, it prevents health issues)
I have owned Shelties for over 20 years. They are amazingly smart and easy to train. I will always have a Sheltie.
For most dog owners I strongly suggest avoiding a Basenji. Having owned and showed them for years I can definitely say they can be too much for a novice owner. They are extremely intelligent and hard to train. In Africa they are bred for a specific purpose, and it requires them to think and work independently of their owner on many occasions.
Thought for sure the Golden Retriever would have been on this list .
I created a video all about golden retrievers
The fur is a huge grooming need. Some people don’t want to be bothered. There’s a reason they mix the breed with short hairs. They sell more.
Same ;-;
@@Robisme how do you explain the shetland in there ? with double coat
They also tend to have health issues. :(
Clearly Golden Retriever should be on this list.
Chris Phillips EXACTLY! They have labs but no golden. Labs have more energy (usually) and Golden’s are great with kids
I was very surprised too. I was expecting goldens to be on 5 or 3 next to labs.
Yeah
No they should not, the breed has many health issues, expensive ones too. For that reason its not a easy breed to own. Other than that, in my opinion, its the best breed. I love my golden, but would not say its easy to own him.
And a staffy
Pfft, "easiest breeds to own" and a malamute and American Akita Inu in the thumbnail 😂

I have an Akita and these is so not easy at all. So I don't understand why they would put them on the tumbnail
AN OW your so dumb it's an American akita not an American akita inu your so dumb
An Ow -- I can't believe you mentioned American Akitas! I was just thinking, swear, that they'd never include Akitas on the list because dog lists never do. I don't know why! I loved my Akita, heart and soul. What a fun character of a dog, and so incredibly smart. OK, she shed, but in summer I kept her shaved so we both got a break. Nikki was great with kids, even strange kids at the park. How I miss her. She died Christmas Eve, 2011. That was a terrible Christmas.

I was looking for this comment 😂
there is no such thing as an "easy" breed. The sooner we can ditch this idea, the sooner people will stop getting dogs with zero prior research and either abandoning them or ending up with an unhealthy or poorly behaved animal (newsflash: I work in dog boarding and the majority of "family dogs" are sweet but that's about all they have going for them. And it's always the labs and retrievers that are the most hyper). Yes I understand that some dog breeds require MORE experience as someone who works in a kennel, but the idea that any breed is "easy." is something we need to ditch.
A dog is a high maintenance pet, and for the sake of the animal we need to stop peddling any idea to the contrary just to cater to the wishful thinking of people who want the benefit of a dog in their life but don't truly have the time, money, or lifestyle where they can *properly* take care of one.
Emily Carroll
Exactly!
Thank you! :)
So true! I have 2 cats and a dog and they are all a lot of work. Cats need attention and exercise, my dog needs daily walks and playtime. It drives me crazy when people think having companion animals is easy or all about having a cute, cuddly furry friend. Yes, they are wonderful companions (better than most humans imo!) but there are times you will be cleaning up their vomit at 2 am, or spend atrocious amounts of money on vet bills if they get sick or injured. They absolutely require a lot of attention, time and money.
This is SO true.
While some breeds may be less demanding than others... the fact remains that we're talking about a living creature, who needs more from you than a handful of kibble, and the occasional pat on the head.
The sad truth is... most people get a dog for entirely selfish reasons. They get a dog because THEY crave the companionship... but give little, if any, thought to the needs of the dog and thus, doom it to a depressing existence. This will be even worse when people choose a breed which requires a higher level of commitment (which they neither understand, nor have any intention of delivering) simply because the particular breed is "fashionable".
Personally, I have lived for years now, without a dog (which would be welcome) in my life... because I don't feel that it would be fair to the dog, due to my work schedule, etc.
I'm hoping that in the next year or so I can get my life rearranged enough to finally make room for a dog in it... but, if not, I won't get one.
This video did mention one of the breeds I will consider when I feel I'm ready... the miniature schnauzer... which is "on my list" simply because of its more "flexible" personality traits.
Your comment needs to be pinned to the top of the comments. Saying any dog breed is "easy" is so irresponsible and your explanation says exactly why.
Yup
My wife and I are dog trainers and when I see Beagle as the first dog I knew the list was no good. Too high a prey drive makes them want to chase every little critter. They are great hunting dogs, but can be a handful as a pet. The worst of the list though is the English Bulldog. I have one that we rescued because the owner didn't realize the work that goes into the breed. We have re-homed 4 bulldogs in just the last two years for this reason with 2 of them having to be re-homed more than once and not for behavioral issues. They need daily maintenance to stay healthy and even then end up needing to go to the vet multiple times a year. They can test even the most experienced dog owner, but if you have a good deal of free time to keep them healthy, are patient, prepared for a challenge, and have a decent bank account or credit card then they might be for you. I love my bulldog, he's my best buddy that is always by my side, and he is honestly my favorite of our 3 dogs that I all love, but he is a ton of nonstop work that 99% of dog owners aren't prepared for or don't have the patients and money to give them the care they need to stay healthy. Honestly I feel bad for them and think they shouldn't be bred, but that's our fault for making them so unhealthy just for their exaggerated features. PLEASE DON"T GET A BULLDOG UNLESS YOU UNDERSTAND FULLY THE CARE, TIME, AND MONEY THEY TAKE
I had to laugh at the Beagle too. Those dogs are high energy.
any dog that has a pushed in face or is a rodent hunter is either difficult to recall or has a big vet bills sometimes both
Every day for the past 12 years I tell my beagle, "I know why you were dumped off in that corn field."
oh yes $$$$ big check book. They are tenacious I don't know why they are on this list!
what would be your top 10 breeds?
My Golden had cancer, he was doomed - asked the vet what was best breed to own - His Answer, The Mutt!
I agree with your vet, for people that want just a pet, mutts are great, just rescue them from responsible shelters, or you can also find them on the steets
Ansel Loves --- I prefer the term mixed breed, don't you?
@@marilynguinnane4663
Crossbreeds are the latest craze
Labradoodle (Labrador and Poodle)
Cockapoo (Cocker Spaniel and Poodle)
I don't think that breeding an inbred
breed to another inbred breed will
be a guarantee of health or temperment.
Yeah my Golden died from cancer too. In fact, him and all his siblings died within a year of each other from the same kind of cancer.
I got a mongrel that was due to be sent to the pound she looked allmost 99% golden ret (her mum was pedigree golden ret..father alsation mix possibly) By the look of mum she was for breeding pure golden ret ..but had snuck out one night and got too familiar with a dog from the wrong side of the track and bought shame down on the faimly someone had pissed in the gene pool lol))But my mongrel from that mum had cancer and strangley all the other pups in her litter also had the same fate...I came to conclusion that they are very overbred think too much pedigree in there .
When I saw Bulldog on the list I called BS right away. You will pay for the medical bill.
Depends on the owner and how they treat that dog. Most people use this to put up a beware of dog sign.
@@fujiwara478hp
The English Bulldog's ancestors were as frightful
as many of the mastiff guard breeds.
But the current EB was bred to be cute and cuddly.
However they do have times when they zoom
around the room, like pudgy rockets!. And, they
can be difficult to train because they are very
stubborn. (When they are done with their walk,
they are done with their walk!)
Also, they are such lovers that they want just
about everyone (including a small child) to be
their personal velcro attachment -- Even if that
small child (or frail old lady) is used as a
cushion by them. -- Ooof!
I really love that you mention the Mutt 💘💘
Yes I also agree
Absolutely! Mutts are by far the easiest breed to own. I would put Labs next.
I didn't like that because mutt is not a breed. They can mention mixed breeds but don't list them as a breed. The list is wrong anyway from start to finish.
I have had 4 “mutts” my current lad(lurcher-greyhound,whippet,staff terrier and saluki) is the brightest lad Ive ever had he was adopted at 7months having been through 4 previous homes. The fist 6 months were difficult but at nearly 2 years with us he is just the best dog. Only thing is we cant leave him home alone but thats because im always home or take him with me when i go out.
"Mutt"?! When a SNIDE person I worked with called my dog a mutt, I went all "politically correct" on her and said, "Excuse me. He is a representative of ancestral diversity." That shut her up.
My dog and I were at the park when a woman approached me and asked "what kind of dog" (breed) he was.
I started to explain that actually he had been a stray...
... but then she interrupted me to ask, "Is he full-blooded?"
A full-blooded stray? I didn't know how to answer a person who would ask such a question.
My friend had two beagles, dumb as planks, always chewing things, and when they caught a scent, they were long gone and too dumb to find their way home.
So glad you included them ‘mutt’ in this list! I love mongrels, less likely to poor health, often intelligent and trainable. I love ‘mutts’. AKA mongrels.

What nonsense comment is this? We all know how much dedication it takes to own any dog breed and take care of it. The idea of this video is to name those breeds which are easier to handle for beginners compared to other breeds
This video is completely wrong as there were too many inconsistencies with known traits in breeds to be considered credible.
Its almost a joke video. Can you imagine someone who has never owned a dog getting some of these breeds? Their houses would be trashed and they would be crying trying to get the dogs to stop barking or howling. Most of these dogs need someone who knows what they are doing with them.

Calm, just nosy enough, loving, a walker, a sleeper, a cuddler, you name she everything except she is NOT a biter, a barker, a messy critter. We sleep nose to nose.
I love Bulldogs I really do but the negatives with their health and the sheer cost for potentially a very low life length makes them a heartbreak breed as bad as the huge Irish wolfhounds and great Danes
Boston Terrier! One of the sweetest dog breeds in my opinion. Very easily trained, smart, requires minimum grooming, friendly, and good with other pets (in my experience). On the down side, they get too hot easily in warmer temps.
Bulldog, Pug, Frenchie .... yeah really easy to own with all the breathing issues (not).... Or the Basset with skin,eyes,ear and bone problems. First time that i disagree with your ranking.
I love the mutt at the end. It's so true the tend to stay healthier.

That was actually an Alaskan Malamute! They look similar but they are very different puppers!
I agree with mixed breeds for number 1. I would also nominate a Boston Terrier. Easy to train. Lovable and rough and tumble to play with bigger dogs.
Had a Boston terror she was a wonderful dog
I've been a rescuer of Basset for 20 years. You literally got everything wrong but one. Yes they are easy going and like people. They are massively prone to cysts which can cost $500 each to have removed, and they must be removed to see if they are cancerous which is another thing thet are prone too. East to train they are not. You have to use their sense of smell to get their attention. If your down wind you end up chasing them, because Bassets suffer from convenience deafness, if it's not convenient, they are deaf. They must smell the treat, but once they discover you have treats they will harass you. They require a firm hand, patience, and the ability to go from stern to encouraging in one breath because they are easily cowed by humans. Yes they do get along with other dogs. NO they are not lazy or low energy. It must have been Hollywood that taught you that. If you don't put 2 to 3 MILES on them at least 5 days a week they developed behaviour problems. They are a HUNTING HOUND. They can go all day with 1/2 to 1 hour breaks 3 to 5 times a day. I've had Bassets launch from 12' feet away and hit me in the chest knocking me and chair ass over teakettle. Low energy? Lazy? They are only as lazy as their parent human is. He wants to be with you at all times. So, if your a couch potato so will he be.
You really should check with a reputable breed rescue that's got at least ten years rescuing.
How do you house break them, i can have her outside an hour and she comes in and poops everytime. She is 2yrs old and such a sweetheart tho.
Beagles are sweethearts but will roam if given a chance. I know someone whose beagles were all runaways that they found.
I hope new were nervous dog owners do not take this video seriously as to what dog they should start out with. Because most of the ones on this list are definitely not beginner dogs.
Jen get a dog that is at a shelter pls pugs are great dogs but they have medical problems or a Boston terrier is a great dog and if u want a big dog a Great Dane or a greyhound would be a great choice
Bulldogs have a ton of health issues, it should not be recommended
I have a rescue dog that it 37.5% chihuahua, 12.5% Shih Tzu, 12.5% miniature poodle, 12.5% cocker spaniel, and 12.5% breed groups which were companion, terrier, and hound. (We did a DNA test.) I love her to pieces and don't want anything more. She has had zero health problems and is super smart as well as a little snuggle bug on the couch. She knows how to sit pretty, bow, give kisses, heel, jump on my back, some agility, and the basic commands. She is also excellent in public when she traveled on a plane. I love my mutt!
The first dog I think of as being high maintenance health wise is the Frenchy. There’s no way it belongs on a list of “easy dogs” to own!
I Am Tammy-Sue yeah my sister owns a frenchie and she will tell you right away they may be cute but they cost a butt load even if you just have to get the procedures they need your done like five grand and that dosent include the cost of buying one, she had to save up for years to buy one. but she is very blunt when people ask her about him and owning him she always tells them what a big cost he is and everything his breed needs to just be healthy, and although she loves him dearly if she had it to do over she might not have gotten him to begin with
"Mutt" and the Lab are the only 2 choices I agree with here.
The others, such as the Bulldog and Schnauzer have a number of genetic problems they're prone to.
In the past 20 years, I've owned nearly a dozen dogs, and the healthiest and easiest to deal with have always been the mixed breeds, with the Labs coming in a close second.
Schnoodles are pretty healthy as they are a new designer breed. This is subject to change however as inbreeding by greedy bad breeders will mess the breed up genetically.
Mixed breed labs aren't a good idea out in the country. Pure Labs have no interest in chasing livestock if they get out. Several Lab poodle crosses and similar have been shot locally for attacks on sheep.
You missed again. Frenchies and Bulldogs both suffer from breathing problems, heart problems, and etropia. You have no idea about dogs so give it up.
Wow , taking a UA-cam upload about dogs so personal 🙄 . it's ok you'll be ok 👍
I agree with you, begals are also difficult dogs to own they turn deaf once their nose hits the floor bassits have issues with barking eye and back problems, labs bite people more than any other breed also finding a well bred lab is extremely difficult and although they are easy to train people often expect them to train themselves

Was so happy to see you put the mutt at number 1. I have always had mutts and always will. Some of them I knew the breeds, but most of them it was a best guess. All of them have been wonderful dogs and all of them lived long healthy lives.
Smooth Coat Dachshunds are easy to own (depending on their personality). They are very clean and need no grooming except for a nail trim every now and then. You must watch how much you feed them though and give them plenty of playtime/exercise. 😊
Hello Friends, what other breed do you think should be on this list ?
I think you should put maltese cuz i got maltese female for first dog and all i can say is that they are amazing and understand human feelings :)
I think Weiner dogs should b on top of list! Love love love them
ViralBe I'm scared of dogs as I was bitten by a German shepherd when I was younger, it approached me and I freaked out (10 years old). How can I over come my fear of dogs as I panic and shake when a dog approaches me thinking it's going to bite me (especially large dogs). How can I overcome this phobia as I want to get a dog like a German shepherd, Rottweiler. Do you think it is a wise idea or not ? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks for video.
Pitbull
Amstaff
My standard poodle is the best breed I have ever own. Grooming every 6 weeks is a small price to pay for such a fine animal. She is smart, athletic and graceful like no other breed I have ever had!
I agree. I have a standard poodle too. He is by far the best. All the grooming is a buzz kill. He gets a bath once, sometimes twice a week and I do his grooming. But he is so worth it.
I think you should have put the golden retriever on that list I think they're one of the best dogs to own and great family dogs
Ok my mother had beagle it wasnt sociable at all, most vicious dog i ever encountered was a black lab and I own an Americna Akita who is the most lovable easy maintaince dog ive ever owned as long as you train them. Basically it depends on wether they have been properly socialised as pups and properly trained also and that is the same for any breed.
I have an Akita pitbull cross that is one of the best dogs I have ever had. But I had a purebred Akita that was wonderful but could get pretty dominant when I still had small kids. I rehomed him to a lady that had a female and is was just heaven for him. They are great just not for homes with small children.

Did not expect the mutt. Actually made me happy to see that. Great video!
I have a 8 yo basset hound not sure who made this list, they are stubborn, not so easy to train (unless they want to) no where as easy as a lab or retreiver to own, they can be a big medium size dog as mine is 72lbs now. They are great dogs and worth the effort, but I would never say easy.
Well although you did'nt have it in your Top 10, I was still amazed and surprised to see an Alaskan Malamute in your pictures. I have a 7 month old male and a 5 year old Staffordshire Bull Terrier. I knew all about Malamutes before getting one, but for anyone who doesn't, it's a little misleading having a photo in your promotion. Just saying. Thanks.
A beagle will follow his nose anywhere. Good luck keeping him home.
A shelty is a yip yip dog. Good luck with the grooming and hair all over your house .
A bull dog lives 6 years has numerous health problems.
A pug has numerous health problems.
Basset Hound have a strong hound odor
A schnauzer is a strong willed barker.
A Labrador retriever, is a high energy dog, good luck with the hair all over the house.
Italian gray hound, ugly.
French bull dog, cute, tons of health problems.
Mutt, go rescue one. The USA puts down 1.2 million dogs a year. Give one a home and save a life.
I can't _believe_ you said IG's are _ugly._
They don't like to outside when it's raining; they will chase an appealing scent to Greenland and back. But ugly? Never. And they are the most appealing snuggle-bunnies in creation.
Shelter dogs are the best to me because you can pick one which suits you and mixed breeds often have less health issues
Not always. It highly depends. sometimes pure breeds are healthiest cause the breeders do very careful selecting. And often the dogs on shelters will have some sort of a disease from when they got rescued that maybe will be hard to cure
Okay... The fact that Mutt is no. 1 is fantastic!!! Every doggo deserves love and caring...💙💙💙
Beagles have a huge hunting instinct what makes them not easy outside when not good trained. Pugs, Bulldogs and French Bulldogs have health problems caused by genetics so their not an easy breed
Beagles are also hard to train they are very stubborn. They need a dog owner that has experience with dog training.

they will not be broken of howling
unless an electronic collar is used.
The last one makes me want to adopt another dog. Planning to check on a Bassett Hound mixed at the shelter nearby. 9 weeks old now.
Good news, I went back there but she has been adopted. Bad news, I didn't get to adopt her but I am happy that she found a home.
@@pythonprofreak7522 My brother had a Bassett named Earl. One of the quirkiest, funniest and very loving dogs I have ever known! He absolutely adored my brother! He did not have the hip/back problems some Bassetts do.
Why the heck are Saint Benards not on this list I have one he's sweet gentle lazy why are the not on here?🤔😣☹️
TheBethLast they are maybe not bc they are pretty big and harder for a lot of people to own
I just thought about same but I had Newfoundland dogs, and they are just like Saint bernards gentle, lazy and loving dogs.🤔
They're great dogs, but they're also huge. Not the best for smaller living spaces. And some jurisdictions in other parts of the world don't even allow large dogs (or at least won't issue a license for them).
The Aussie should be on the list, great companion and wonderful with kids!
I'm watching Larry Krohn at the moment, he is very experienced on dog training, you should check him out if you got a dog or need help with training.
I love ur vids!! I watch ur vids from da start of 2019 and i acually leaned alot of stuff about dogs and also their 'backgrounds' U made me pick the correct breed for me and my family! Ty
I mean the start of 2018
Yes, mutts! All animals deserve a home. Choose compassion, adopt!
Kryssi Lee bit if I want a certain trait like a malinois then I’ll buy the dog
I have 3 rescued purebreds; a Chow Chow and two mini American Eskies, along with two rescued mutts. It’s all a choice. We all have a favorite.
it was people who caused this problem so we should fix it
Well I got my dog from a friend who didn't mean for her dog to have pups does that count?
@@thats_a_human_person1478 not really, that's just supporting irresponsible breeding. I hope your friend spayed her dog after that.
Have a 10 year old dear head chihuahua ,she loves to sleep and loves kids good watch dog . And not a noisy barker or aggressive. She does like to be carried.
While Italian greyhounds made this list, adopting an ex-racing Greyhound in my humble opinion is a much better choice. You get a house trained companion that needs little exercise and will be a constant companion.
When they're still racing, where are they usually kept? You better have a fenced in yard as you would never catch it!
5:54: “they are a peaceful and gentle friend”
proceeds to show the dog jumping and chewing on the kids face
This Italian greyhound just playfully bite with child,not aggressively.
I would not reccomend a Basset as they are difficult to house train and love to escape and take themselves off hunting.Also pugs have problems breathing in hot weather due to selective breeding for appearance over functionality
Bull dogs are prone to get cancer. Pugs shed every single day. Both have trouble with sleep apnea due to short snouts
I really don’t recommend getting a shelter dog if you’re a beginner, I know I sound like a jerk right now but shelter dogs come with emotional and psychological baggage that a beginner may not know how to handle leading to the dog being rehomed again or abused/neglected
“Frenchies rarely bark” 🤣🤣🤣 I’m the owner of two frenchies and they bark like crazy.
No dog is easy to own There living creatures with there own needs not accessoires get a goldfish if you lazy
Gold fish is too hard. Best pet is a rock.
We all now that siblings are the best pets they are very entertaining but from time to time very annoying
@@JustAnotherOne1 You can tell by the bottoms if they are boy or girl pet rocks just like with cats or dogs.
I have a French Bulldog and I wouldn’t say they are an “easy” dog. My dog has quite the hygiene regimen, medications and strict diet. This year alone I have spent $2,000 on his medical care and that does not include a $4,000 surgery scheduled in July. They are amazing dogs but, I knew nothing about this breed as he was a gift. I definitely wish I knew more about the breed before I was gifted him!
Could you imagine someone telling you, before you got the bulldog, that this is one of the "top ten easiest dogs to care for"? It's pretty irresponsible. This is how dogs get abandoned or given up...My mother bred English Bulldogs and I she had a pretty strict checklist, for the buyer, before she would ever sell one. They are not "easy".
LMAO literally none of this is true wow
Some of them are, for example, miniature schnauzers and pugs are very easy dogs to own. BUT, there are deffinetly some dogs on this list that i do not agree with.
I got another dog a while ago off of Craigslist and they had no idea what mix of breeds it was. The dog is the most cuddly nice dog I’ve ever had he is also smart enough to be trained and hasn’t had any health problems. I also have a Pomeranian chihuahua mix that has had cancer but it was caught early and dental issues but that dog is also very nice and energetic too when around my other dog.
Yay, mutt conquers all!

"Treat others the same way you want to
be treated."
I have a mutt his name is bear! Yes he is huge!
My pug actually stole the show in a musical we both were in. Opening night he escaped from back stage and ran on to the stage at curtain call. I basically had a heart attack because I was apart of the first group bowing when he ran across the stage.
Basset Hound easy to train? My chloe flunked puppy kindergarten 3 times and I ended up getting a personal trainer who had 100% success in his career.....Chloe broke that record and he’s now at 99%. She was very sweet though, but extremely stubborn.
😂😂😂
AmStaff is a super easy dog. I got mine at the shelter thinking he was a pit mix. He's mellow and loves people more than any dog I've ever had. Good to train, smart, and takes direction very well. He is a spaz though.
As I was watching this video, I was shaking my head at every single breed.. not easy, any of them, they all have their own issues. I'm glad I made it to the end, because YES mutts are by far the easiest breed. Fewer health issues, better temperment, and you can tell by looking at them which ones will be easy to care for with grooming and if they're active type or chilled out. People should only get a "breed" if they plan on breeding, or using them for their original intent (like herding breeds). 100 reasons to go to a shelter. It's not just to save a dog.
That's true about smart dogs. I have German shepherds. When you see them in movies or on rin tin tin they are stoic, well behaved dogs that are easy to train but in reality they are really high maintenance and demand a lot of attention. Belgian malinois are even more needy. Both breeds are trained easily but also have a lot of energy and curiosity to go with all that intelligence. This can lead to dogs getting into things they shouldn't. I love the breed but not for everybody. Both my dogs are rescues because people got them thinking they would be low maintenance guard dogs you can keep chained up in the backyard, and surrendered them when they wouldn't stop barking. No shit they barked, wouldn't you if you were imprisoned in a hot california back yard with no companionship? They aren't goldfish.
One of the most vicious dog fights I ever witnessed was between a beagle and a young pitbull. The beagle held his own. We couldn't get them apart. Finally the pitbulls owner came out with some gloves and a club and beat them apart. Beagles can be very mean.
Next time get the water hose. It works much better than beating the dogs or breaking them up by hand
@@chasethewhiterabbits so I guess now you're an expert with pit bulls.
@@Rick-wn5oh nope , it’s just a more affective and safer method of breaking up a dog fight. It’s good advise. Either use it or don’t. The sarcasm is unnecessary.
@@chasethewhiterabbits So you admit you know nothing about pit bulls. Not all dogs quit fighting when squirted with water.
Besides they were in a pen 200 feet from the nearest source of water. He ran out there trying to save that one of the dogs lives. So maybe you should hold off making comments until you know all the details.
@@Rick-wn5oh nope I didn’t say that either. You keep putting words in my mouth instead of asking , you make statements. Not really the best way to gain information . You seem to want to be aggressive no matter what . So I’ll let you go with it . I wasn’t trying to ruin your comment /story. It was advise. Obviously in this scenario a water hose wasn’t an available option. And for reference I own 2 Am staff terriers. ( the only “Pitt bull”breed recognized by AKC ). However this doesn’t make me an “expert” nor does it mean I “ know nothing about Pitt bulls”.
Hello from Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪 very nice video sharing
how about poodle they are very friendly and 2nd most inteillent dog breed in the world! (border collie is the 1st )
👇 《》♡
You deserve way more likes. I've known a couple of standards and they were sweet, friendly, playful dogs. The grooming would be a bit of a con though.
We had a Doodle. Pretty mellow but protective.
Borders are the worst! Unless they have a job and someone with them all the time, they are a bad choice! They are not good city dogs, get bored easily and will bite if not socialized. They become obcessive if they aren't exercised daily. Never teach them to fetch a ball, or that is all They will do. They heat stroke easily, are cold area dogs, unless they are shaved and they are high upon the list for cancer. If you live in a area that has ticks and fleas, you must check them and keep them treated against infestation. They are prone to skin allergies. I've had them, worked and trained them with livestock. That is the only place a Border Collie should be allowed! High upkeep also. Do not encourage people who don't know Borders to get them.
Totally agree. They wont bond with you as much as other dogs do either. All they care about is a job to do.
As for me I have a Queensland Heeler "Red" and a "Blue" Heeler mix and they are very Smart and very attached and obedient, Loyal!!!
I love my mutts, rescue dogs are the best
I have a cross breed dog named Theo, he's half Jack Russell and half Shih tzu. He's an amazing little guy and I cannot imagine my teenage years without him. He loves to for walks (45 mins - 1h 30 long) but he loves to snuggle under the covers in the morning too. But he DOES NOT LIKE THE POSTMAN OR THE BINMAN
I love my Golden Retrievers
Italian Greyhounds are anything but graceful. They do everything like their life depends on it; cuddling, playing, running around.. And they look completely derpy while they do it. They're wonderful though, at least the few that I've known.
The only video without German Sheppard in it
Im planning to buy a belgian malinois is it good??
all of these breeds have a load of health and temperament issues lmao
Can anyone tell me what the breed of the cover photo of this video please? The one next to husky 🙏🏻
Pit bulls should be on this list. That’s all we’ve ever owned and they’re GREAT ABSOLUTELY AMAZING family dogs.
shut up man there always that one person who says pit bulls should be here
Brittany Taft 👍☘️🇮🇪🔔🔔
I have a Mutt that passes as a Border Collie. So you’re right and wrong.
My Border Collie is the best friend I never wanted but would never give up.
I like mutts but they arent a breed.
Also, one of your qualifications in the beginning was health and then you put pugs and Bulldogs on the list. Kinda confusing
But, no Boxer? No Staffie? 😥
Nathan,
Unfortunately, the Boxer dog has health issues.
And most only live to be around 10-12 years.
Also, until they are about 5 years old, they
need a lot of exercise.
Staffie and AmStaffs are two breeds (as well
as the Boxer) that can be problematic. But
if they are from good stock and have been
properly socialized; they can make good
pets. My personal opinion is that a family
with children should not re-home these
breeds unless it is a dog that they are
very familiar (e.g. A neighbor moves away
and you've interacted with the dog)
@@here_we_go_again2571 it’s the stupid humans fault for causing dogs to bite/attack. Any dog can do that. It’s not the dog it’s the people
Lots of respect for listing mutt as #1..all my dogs I've ever owned are rescues. They all tend to be in the GS family but certainly mixed. My newest guy is apparently a potcake dog. Super intelligent, gets bored very quickly so requires constant stimulation which has been great with training as he loves to work for treat or toy.
My mom had a beagle and it would run away all the time. 😂 bu sadly it got attacked by a cayote
5:45 "Graceful looks" Then proceeds to show Kermit Marbles
My favorite breed is a mutt I have one
I miss my Shi Tzu so much. Easiest dog to train I ever had. He had very low energy and would self feed without over eating. Mine was always the right weight and had no food guarding at all. Very outgoing, calm and rarely barked. Would sit next to me or others but not a lap baby. Took to commands easily. My neighbors Shi Tzu was a nightmare and I wouldn't give him house room ever. The BIG problem is grooming. Be sure they have a trust fund so they can get weekly visits and 1x a month major overhaul. Leave room for tips.
Golden Retrievers need to be on here
I agree, but they need alot of brushing and will destroy an apartment if left alone too long. Beautiful dogs and very loving.
@@stevepopplewell7079 and clingy, from what I've heard. They crave attention so you gotta be careful. Lovely pooches ♥
@@stevepopplewell7079 - *can* destroy an apartment. That's certainly not my experience. My dog would only chew on something if I specifically gave it to her.
well labs are definitely a good alternative if you love golden retrievers
When i was little i got a beagle before i was ready for a dog. It was the most over energetic dog i’ve ever met.
Boxers there a very family friendly and can be funny at times
They do have heart issues. You need to kjnow dog CPR if you have one. But boxers are great pets.
Left out the Yorkshire Terrier, intelligent, obediant and a ton of love, the only one you showed I would take over a Yorkie is a Bulldog.
