What is the most easiest dog breed to take care of?
#1: Basenji. This wonderful breed has no “doggy smell,” so combined with his short coat and small size, he goes right to the top of the list. The only thing you need to watch out for is not to get water in his ears when bathing him. He is considered a barkless dog, by the way, but he can make plenty of noise.
1. Labrador or Golden Retriever. Labradors and golden retrievers are similar in the fact that they are both very loyal and affectionate breeds, getting on well with kids and other dogs too. They are intelligent breeds and will require daily exercise and some training.
The No. 1 dog on the list isn't just one breed, but basically "any one flat-faced or brachycephalic dog breed," such as a French bulldog, bulldog, or pug. (Singer Lady Gaga owns two French bulldogs, who were dognapped and returned unharmed in 2021.)
1. Golden Retriever. It's safe to say that this breed is one of the most personable around. Golden Retrievers are always eager to please and have a calm temperament, which means they will be happy to socialise with everyone – even with other pets!

Affenpinscher. A central European toy breed, these adorable little pooches are around 6 to 13 pounds, so they won't take up much room around your house.
Purebred dogs not only have increased incidences of inherited diseases but also heightened health issues, such as hip dysplasia in large breeds like the German shepherd and the Saint Bernard. Despite the negative effects of controlled breeding, animal science experts point to the value of selecting for consistency.
Dog breeds that can be left alone for long periods include Labrador and Golden Retriever, Beagle, Peekapoo, or Shiba Inu. Naturally, by long-term periods, it's implied that the period is up to 8 hours a day and not more. Of course, you shouldn't forget about adorable mutts.
The Chow Chow combines many “clean” dog characteristics, and according to the AKC, owners report that Chow Chows “are the cleanest of dogs: they housebreak easily, have very little doggy odor, and generally are as fastidious as cats.” At certain times of the year, however, Chow Chows shed… a lot!
Mixed-breed dogs are generally healthier than purebred dogs. This is because purebred dogs have a limited gene pool and risk passing along genetic disorders from generation to generation. Typically, owners of mixed-breed pets can expect to pay a lower pet insurance premium than owners of purebred pets.
The complete study and results can be found here. The result of pet ownership versus non pet ownership was that pet owners were sick 1.575 days per year. Non pet owners were sick 2.681 days per year. Pet ownership was linked to a significant decrease in the number of illnesses people had in a year.
As many of these gene pools are limited or closed, the risk of genetic defects rises significantly with each successive coupling. Defects include a higher risk of cancer and tumors; eye and heart disease; joint and bone disorders; skin, immune system and neurological diseases; and even epilepsy.
