These cats have a very soft body and yet can grow up to weigh nearly twenty pounds nevertheless they are lovable oafs! They are a lazy, don’t like to play around much and are very sensitive in nature. They cannot defend themselves from a dog or any other predator and so they should not be left alone, if you are heading out for work or anything. Ragdolls like to take a limp in the arms of their owner that’s why they are called ‘Ragdoll’.

These cats are very lazy and have their bodies covered with huge fur and soft hair so they need proper maintenance. They don’t like to roam around much and prefer the warmth of their basket but they want to be loved and played with. These cats have such beautiful hair that you wouldn’t want to take them out in dirt.

You can find them licking or cleaning their fur themselves. They are much pampered cats and like to be groomed regularly but of course like all cats they stay away from water. They have a very gentle nature and love to be the attention seeker and would do anything to grab spot light when they are with humans. Persians if given proper care along with regular visit to the vet and good nutrition can even live upto fifteen to twenty years!

The 10 best family dog breeds

A compiled a list of the ten most family friendly dog breeds. Cesar’s Way takes a look at that list and offers our comments. Of course, the best way to have a family friendly dog is to ensure that the dog considers every human member of the family as its Pack Leader.

Breed#01:

Newfoundland:

Because of their natural love of children, the Newfoundland has been dubbed “Nature’s Nannies.” Large and sweet, it’s hard not to fall in love with them, and they will return the favor. While they can drool and shed a lot, and suit a family with large open spaces, they will also tend to wind up wherever the family is. Basically, they are gigantic, loveable furballs who desire nothing more than to keep watch on their pack members.

Bonus choice: go to your local shelter, and consider rescuing a mixed breed dog. In fact, consider a mixed breed in any case. Look for a dog that matches the energy level of your family, keeping one thing in mind — mid size and larger dogs are great for families, while small breeds are not. If you have children, avoid Chihuahuas or Yorkies or anything you could pick up with one hand; look at terriers, retrievers, or other bigger dogs. In general, if you’re not afraid of injuring it by stepping on it, then it’s probably durable enough for children. Once again, though here’s the most important thing to remember: Whatever dog you bring in to the family, all of the people need to be the pack leaders, whether adults or children. Follow this rule from day one, and no matter what dog you adopt, you’ll have an enjoyable experience.

Spuds McKenzie, Buster Brown’s Pal, and the preferred canine baby sitter of yesteryear, bull terriers are intelligent, energetic and friendly dogs that can take a lot of roughhousing while remaining calm. Particularly suited to large families, they don’t complain too much when manhandled by children, and can actually help teach kids how to properly relate to dogs. Plus they’re just very cute and adorable. While they are energetic and require lots of play time, they will also help wear your kids out — the more the merrier — and will return the favor by being very protective of them.

Beagle:

If you don’t mind a bit of high maintenance when it comes to brushing and bathing, Charlie Brown’s best friend is an ideal dog for families with children. Energetic and friendly, beagles are also sturdy and mostly child-proof, and your kids will wear out before they do. They also make good nannies that can help you herd the young ones at bed time, and have endearingly humorous habits, like howling, which can be very amusing in small doses.

Vizsla:

Originally a middle-European hunting dog, and little known outside of its native Hungary, the Vizsla is gentle, loyal, quiet and affectionate. It does require a lot of exercise — not a problem if you have energetic children. Still, it prefers to spend a lot of time indoors with its family, and is very eager to learn and show off. If you want to teach your children by teaching them to train dogs, then this breed is a good choice.

Goldens are almost everything a Labrador is, except with a much shorter life span then the Irish Setter — twelve years at the most, but ten more likely.

One of the most popular breeds all around, we have documented Labradors elsewhere as the best dog to have if you’re looking for a date, the only breed accepted for training as arson dogs, and one of the more popular breeds for service dogs. For a family, there’s hardly a better choice. Labradors love to please their humans, being playful, protective, loving, and reliable. There’s nothing that a Lab loves more than to show off by learning a new trick, even if they manage to learn that new trick before you’ve taught it to them. They are canine Einsteins.

Please note, only the standard poodle is a good family dog. Miniature poodles tend to be very high strung and not suitable for families with children. Standard poodles are smart and gentle, and are good for children with allergies, as they do not shed as much as other breeds. Otherwise, they are good-natured, and make excellent playmates for children.

A better choice for families with yards because of their energy, Irish Setters are wonderful with children, because they are playful and energetic. One word of warning, though — their life spans are among the shorter ones for larger breeds, so you should only choose an Irish Setter if you want to teach those inevitable life lessons while your children are in middle school. Twelve years is considered old age for the breed, and few make it to fifteen.

Breed#10:

Bulldog:

The great advantage of bulldogs? They’re sturdy, so they can take anything that rambunctious kids throw at them, while they’re not very energetic. End result? A dog that will put up with a lot. They’re also not picky about where they live, so both small apartments and large houses are fine.

Siamese:

With a sleek, slim figure and a short, fine coat that comes in four colors (seal, chocolate, blue and lilac point), the Siamese is a very refined looking breed. A born chatterbox, Siamese cats are outgoing, social and depend on human companionship. The breed can get very lonely when left alone often and does best when it can be with its people often.
In general, smallness in cats is often caused by too much inbreeding, Gonano said, and CFA breeders tend to prefer to keep their breeds robust. If you’re unsure about the ideal size and weight for your potential cat, talk to a breeder or research the breed standard for your cat to ensure they’re being bred, fed and cared for properly before bringing one home.
