Top 10 Best Therapy Dogs ( Best Emotional Support Dog Breeds )

Of all the breeds of dogs out there, which of them make the best therapy dog?

We’re going to talk about what a therapy dog is, and reveal which best dog breeds have made their way to my list of the top 10 best therapy dogs out there.

A steady, tolerant, and friendly temperament is the most important feature of a therapy dog- and for a good reason.

A Therapy dog ( like the golden retriever ) needs to be trusted to behave itself and get along with anyone it meets in schools, nursing homes, hospitals, shelters, or even events.

As we’ll see in this video, some highly trainable working breeds can become a therapy dog, assuming that the personality and people skills have been trained into the dog.

But therapy dog breeds only have certain natural skills that exceed the rest- the ability to put a smile on someone’s face and ease some stress, through a contagiously positive personality.

Which are the best emotional support dog breeds for you?

Here’s the video of the top 10 best therapy dogs..

I have nerve pain from cervical surgery, I had a Pyrenees that always new when I was having a bad day, who gently crawled up on the couch and would lay his head on my lap he stayed there quietly and putting him, Soothed my pain . Also I had a corgi/terrier that also stayed with me day and night in my chair after surgery, no one could make him leave . I always felt so loved by them, and now that they are gone, I m so aware of my pain, I can’t hardly walk, yoga helps, but I can’t replace what I’ve lost

My first Shih Tzu was a great therapy dog for me especially after I had back surgery in 2006 & she lived to be 15 years old. I got another Shih Tzu when she was 3 months old & she’ll be 3 in December… she’s been the best as her sister before her… she knows when I’m having a bad day with pain or having an emotional time… she’ll stay in bed with me for the entire time & comforts me & can actually calm me down… I couldn’t have asked for a better breed at least for me ❤️🐾❤️

My first PTSD pup was a Corgi. Now I have a German Shepherd, both work great with me.

Perfect PTSD dog was German Shepherd x Rhodesian Ridgeback. Also Irish Wolfhound x Lab. Sadly both gone now, the last very recently.

I had a miniature greyhound and she was extremely intelligent my son had a poodle and that dog literally never left his side even would get up in the middle of the night if he had to use the restroom see he before surgery had almost no eye sight was almost completely blind and this dog made sure he was safe at all times i highly suggest a poodle I don’t know much about these other dog breeds but I do know that the poodle is in my opinion the absolute best therapy dog even for young children

[nettiesanders]

any dog can be there for you when you need them ❤

[lauraswann]

I cannot believe that the Cavalier King Charles spaniel is not on this list!

[philosophicalreason]

What about mixed breeds or is this channel mainly about pure breds?

[christhornycroft]

I have PTSD, anxiety and a physical disability, but I walk. I was looking at getting a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, but I'm open to any suggestions on a smaller dog (I live in a small apartment) that might work well for me. I can't really go on long walks, but an emotional support dog that mostly likes to hang out indoors and go for short walks or trips to various places with me would be ideal. Thank you.

Miniature Dachshund👍

I've had 3 in my life, and there's no breed that is more empathic & affectionate!🤗

Whst about miniature snauzer (i spelled that wrong)?

[jessicaabukhamsin]

I struggle with anxiety and overwhelmed all the time. I don’t like leaving my house . I don’t like being around people.

[exoticcduckk]

Are miniature schnauzers good therapy dogs?

[ericvaneck]

There isn’t top breeds, it is in their personality to be a natural therapy dog. Trained ones are good companions but aren’t into really caring
