If you are thinking about the best dog to have at home, the Labradoodle is an ideal choice. The fact that it does not shed is a marvel, which makes it an excellent choice for families with allergies. We leave you a list that we have made with all our love and being aware of the bias that comes from being a Labradoodle breeder, because next to these dogs everything seems difficult to justify. 

Labradoodle: The Labradoodle is noted for its calm nature, intelligence and hypoallergenic, non-shedding coat. This breed is known to be extremely affectionate and good with children, making it a perfect choice for any home. Its ability to adapt to different environments and its easy training make it ideal for families looking for a companion that does not cause allergies or dirty the house with hair. In small houses they adapt well because being so intelligent they are able to burn their energy with mental games or simply self-stimulating with their toys, so they tolerate loneliness very well. 

Labrador Retriever: The Labrador Retriever is one of the most sought after breeds due to its friendly and loyal character. They are energetic and playful dogs that adapt well to family life. Labradors require regular exercise and tend to shed, which can be a drawback for those who prefer a cleaner home. However, their loving and protective nature more than makes up for these disadvantages. In small homes, they can become overweight and overly overcrowded, making them somewhat destructive if left alone for long hours. 

Golden Retriever: Similar to the Labrador, the Golden Retriever is known for its balanced and friendly temperament. They are intelligent, easy to train dogs with a moderate to high energy level.
