My first dog was a mutt, cocker spaniel mix. She was a rescue, and we think she was about 2 or 3 when we brought her home. She was such a lovely dog, loved kids, acted like a momma dog to a puppy we got about 10 years later. She lived for a very long time, we had her for about 20 years, so we think she was some where around 22 give or take when she passed away, she even died peacefully in our home, just stood up, looked confused for a minute, took two steps and fell over. Our second puppy (bischon poo mix) was raised by her for 8 years and was visibly greiving after his best friend died. We miss you Zoe! You live in my family's hearts forever and we will see you again someday. She was one of the best friends I had as a kid and all the way through my 3rd year of college. She walked my sister and I to both of our first days of school, and wagged her tail at the door when we came home from college to visit. Keep your heart open to rescue dogs. They are wonderful companions. Sorry for the long comment here, and thank you if you read this far. Shes been been gone fir almost 10 years now and I still miss her

Me as a trained animal keeper.....are you sure about some of these dogs...cus you are going very stereotypical and please keep in mind, Great Dane are dying "quite" young, pugs have breathing problems and not even get me started on the bernese mountain dog (Berner Sennenhund) they have ED (elbow dislocation, hip dislocation, eye infections, ear infections, need a lot of care on their fur, and have a tendency for overheating in the summer). I do agree with some breeds like golden retriver, and Labrador but please inform people on the health problems these breeds get easily or are at this point even normal (german sheperd and hip dislocation like...yikes arthritis)

My first pup is a Bichon Frise that I recommended to my parents at the age of 14. I researched extensively for a breed that got no bigger than a cat, great health record, and a good family dog with young children and with special needs. He’s always love being around people and follow us wherever we go. So happy to have him for 11 years and hopefully many more ❤️ Though quick shoutout to Pitbulls cause they are big babies that just want love! Hoping to get one as my first personal dog in the next couple years ❤️

My family's first dog was a Cocker Spaniel, who we got when I was 6 years old. He was seriously the best dog ever. He loved everybody, was super playful, and great with kids. When I was in high school and didn't want to get up for school, he'd stand at the side of my bed and lick my eyes until I got up. He was almost 15 years old when he passed, and the vet said they could tell he was really well loved. Every Cocker I see, I have to pet and rub their ears (Cocker's have frequent ear infections, and every Cocker I've met has LOVED when they have their ears rubbed).

So happy to see greyhounds on this list! A grey was my first dog, and she was wonderful, so wonderful that after she passed years ago, we got another grey. He just passed away a few weeks ago. We miss our "old man dog" so much. ❤ They're such amazing dogs ... so mellow, quiet, and sweet. They have such a calm and gentle energy to them. Greys will forever hold a special place in my heart. ❤

Grew up with Shepherds, Spaniels, Terriers, Collies, and Poodles, and Retrievers. My first dog on my own was a SAMOYED. Best dog ever. Great with kids, no biting, no aggressiveness, loyal, and the best smile ever! The only drawback was the shedding in the summer. My ex was brushing our dog at a park during a summer and maintenance was complaining with the hair all over the place. She lived well over 15 years…almost the lifespan of two Great Danes. Miss you girl.

All my life, there’s been one breed of dog in my immediate family: The Labrador! The only exception was our very first dog, and he was half lab, half border collie. They’re all wonderful dogs, with a lot of love to give, and energy to match.

We're on our 3rd pair of Greyhounds. We've always adopted them from the race track when they retire, and they have been great dogs (except they sometimes think they are an 80lb lap dog). Our current two were adopted right as the tracks were closing, so they were just 1 and 2 years old - a bit more energetic than our others :) One note though: Greyhounds work best if you have a pair, rather than one. And yes, they are 40-mph-couch-potatoes. After a 5 minute run, they'll lay around for 8 hours. And they rarely bark.

My first dog was a boxer, such a sweet dog. My parents had him since before I was born and they always told me how gentle and protective he was. We got a mix between a boxer and an Argentinian Dog after that, who sadly passed away recently due to cancer, but he was the sweetest dog ever. Too strong for me to take on walks, but insidr our house he was a friendly giant. To people who didn't know him he looked "dangerous" because he was big and strong, but he was such a loving dog and I'll always miss him.

My first dog was a cocker spaniel and she was a great first dog!! Miss her!!

My first dog was a Labrador retriever/chow mix. She was the runt of the litter but still grew to be a full sized pup. We had her for 8 years. She was the best dog and even alerted me to danger on more than one occasion.

My first dog was a Borzoi (aka Russian Wolfhound). She was a wonderful introduction to the breed

7:39 Thank you so much for tying English Springer Spaniels at Number 2 with Cavalier King Charles spaniels! Brooke was a Spinger, and she my first dog. She was one of the sweetest dogs I’ve ever known in all my life! Lived to be somewhere between 15 and 17 years old. I miss her so much. Cut to the present, my newest dog, Toby, turned 5 this year! He’s half Cavalier King Charles, half Bichon Frisée, all adorable!! He gets along so well with his cousins, Penny and Peppa! Keep up the good work, Ms. Mojo!

I truly think a mixed breed dog is the best choice for first timers because most of these breeds have very specific needs, and they also tend to have longer lifespans🐶

My family has always had german sheperd dogs since before I was born, and they’re awesome…but, objectively not the best dog to have as your first - they can be stubborn, and once they learn something no matter what you can’t make them unlearn it (at least that has been the case for the ones we had). Also, I totally agree with what the video says about Bernese Mountain Dogs: I have one and, based on my personal experience with him, they’re super playful, super affectionate and super gentle. 💖💖

Basset Hounds are great too! Low maintenance are far as grooming, low energy, very friendly, good with other dogs. They do like to bark some but they are very sweet natured!

our first breed was a maltipoo, he was sooooo tiny when we got him, but he grew to be knee high. we now also have a second one who was a stray when we found him. no chip or anything. that one is a pomeranian, and he’s a cute little fluff ball. his tail, when not wagging it looks like those curly fries. he’s actually a love dog, very playful, and he loves to love all over you if he meets a person of a friendly nature. just be careful, he’ll try to give you a bath.

My first dog was a miniature dachshund called Schnitzel. He turned 13 this year and sadly passed away two weeks ago. I miss him terribly. Dachy’s are great first dogs

Labs have been my all-time favourite breed ever since I was little ❤ I'd love to have one. Also, and I know they might not be ideal for first-time owners, but I love Rottweilers. I remember years ago when my mum took me to her friend's garage because his Rottie had just had puppies, and I fell in love with the breed straight away 😍😍

From my personal experience, I’d recommend a Maltese as a great first dog. My pup Grogu is a year old and has an amazingly sweet personality, friendly with literally everyone he meets. He doesn’t need too much exercise, but he’d gladly run around a field with you. Maltese are also hypoallergenic, intelligent and don’t shed or drool, meaning your house would be relatively clean. They can be slightly stubborn and picky eaters though

My first dog is a male mini Australian shepherd and he is the sweetest, most loyal, and adorable dog ever, he’s pretty stubborn but also rather easy to train and I love him so much

Actually, this is a pretty good list of "easy" dogs (the easier the dog, the better for a first dog). I did want to add that you had a variety of dogs in there and grooming requirements for, say, the Great Dane, is quite different from that of the Shih Tzu. The ShihTzu is likely going to need to be groomed professionally every four to six weeks (or you're looking at a dog with that really long hair you see in the show ring). Same for the poodle. And that can be quite expensive (in addition, you'll need to groom them every day at home). The activity level is also very different (which you pointed out) and be sure that you don't get a Great Dane if you want your dog to go on 20-mile hikes with you and don't get a Papillon if you don't want to give the dog plenty of exercise (these are often called Pocket Rockets), they are extremely fast and athletic and have a huge requirement for exercise. Looking for a small dog and want to get involve in the sport of agility? The Papillon is perfect for you. My husband and I have had Great Danes and Irish Wolfhounds for many year--and we were heavily involved in Dane and Wolfhound rescue for many years. And also wanted to mention that Cavalier King Charles Spaniels have had some issues in the past with many genetic conditions! If you want a Cavalier, research the health issues these dogs can have and go to a breeder and ASK them point blank if their dogs have ever had any of those issues. If they hem and haw, go elsewhere. If the say "No, absolutely not", they're probably not being honest, either. These dogs can have genetic issues that kill them before their first birthday, so buyer beware. That's also the case with Danes and Wolfhounds--make sure you know about the genetic issues and be sure you don't get a puppy that has any and Danes and Wolfhounds don't live very long--you're LUCKY if they live to be 10 years of age. Most die in the 6 to 8 age range.

I'm a proud Dog Mum of 3 i have 2 Westie-Poos called Lily & Luna (yes they were named after the Harry Potter characters) and a Westie + Boarder Collie mix called Ellie, who is our first dog. She is amazing, she alerts us to my Mum's seizures and is the most cleaver and caring dog I've ever loved and I've loved many of my Grandparents dogs. Speaking of my Grandparents, when i was a baby my Dad's parents had an Old English Sheep dog called Blue, who was such a softie who would let me climb all over him as if he was my own personal horse. ❤🐾

Golden retriever and Labrador retriever are my favourite dogs. I mean….they both remind me of 1994 Walt Disney The Lion King Simba for no reason.

Great Danes are awesome! I have a daniff at home and she’s a big, gentle baby.

I am really happy to see the Great Dane on the top ten I grew up with two as a kid they were both very loyal to us but I don’t recall them slobbering too much but guess some do and some don’t. I currently have a Jack Russell as my very first long time dog though he’s very loyal to me but he’s also very strong willed and can have his own mind. You should do a top ten on high energy dogs I’d wager the Jack Russell would be tops

The number one thing I would recommend if you are thinking about getting a dog is DO YOUR RESEARCH many people just get dogs for the aesthetic but it’s actually a lot of work, time, and money to invest in a dog. So make sure you do your research on the right dog for you and make sure you have the time and money to be able to take care of the dog.

I grew up with cocker spaniels and standard poodles. My first pet married is a lab/beagle mix. I love her.

Currently I have a 9 week(?) old XL Bully, and currently she is the best pet to have in my opinion. She likes to play and sometimes might nibble on your palm. She never has bit me out of fear or anger but rather because she was excited to see me after being gone for 7 hours

My kids have a black lab, and she is the absolute best dog around. Super friendly, and yet super protective of my daughter.

My family has almost always had a Boxer. I love them so much!

Pitts are and will forever be my favs. I had 5 still got one. All rescued ❤️

I currently have an adorable standard sized Labradoodle and he has a lot of energy and he’s amazing haha

I love Shih Tzus! They're so sweet. Great for apartment living, too, or for the elderly.

Thank you for including the sweet natured Greyhound

Lassie type Collie. He was wonderful and I truly miss him. He was smart and affectionate, lived to run and cuddle, and loved to play tug.

I first had a pure-bred boxer, then a mixed-breed boxer, and now an Akita German Shepherd mix.

I feel like Wheaton's should get more than an honorable mention. My Theodore so SOOO devoted to his family, and so loving.

My first Dog was a Chihuahua. An old Chihuahua we named Coco. I currently have a Pitbull named Marley

Bernese is a good callout. A bit rough while they are adolescent but after that the sweetest dog breed ever. Really good and sensitive with children. Mine is a higher energy one than usual, but after a walk he will just lay around and come cuddle you. He is a male one tho and not very good with other male dogs, but that isn't a usual trait.

Shih tzus are great dogs. I grew up with them and my family (parents, grandma, aunt, and I) have had a combined total of 19 in the past 50 years. They really are wonderful, sweet dogs. They need humans who are willing and able to enforce boundaries - they can be stubborn. They’re great for homes with less space, and though they like walks they’re also happy to just loll on the couch all day. Grooming is crucial and whether you grow their hair out or get them shaved, there’s still a time and financial commitment, especially if you keep their hair long. My current shih tzu has a full coat and I do spot-combings a couple times a week when I notice tangles developing, with a full 90-minute - 2 hour comb once a week. It’s also extremely important to maintain their topknots if you keep their hair long; they can be prone to eye ulcers if their hair is allowed to get in their eyes. Also, be prepared to shell out a lot of money on dental cleaning, though it varies. We had one shih tzu who was a hard chewer and only needed his teeth cleaned once in his entire life, but we had another one who preferred plush toys rather than hard chew toys and he needed annual teeth cleanings to the tune of $600 a year. Finally, if you’re looking for a shih tzu make sure you go to a responsible breeder. Standard, healthy shih tzu weight ranges from 9-16 pounds. “Teacup” and “Imperial” designer tiny shih tzus should absolutely not be a thing and can result in serious health issues (if you don’t believe me, ask a vet). Ask the breeder how much the adult dogs weigh and move on if the dogs are below standard. Finding responsible breeders takes some patience, but these beautiful, sweet, playful companions are absolutely worth your dedication!

Yay! I love pugs!

I have a whippet named Gazelle and seeing her breed have a spot on one of the mojo chennal list makes me very happy they're such wonderful dogs

The first dogs we had when I was a young kid was a Cocker/Springer Spaniel mix and a German Shepard/Doberman mix. The were the greatest dogs in the world.

The black lab is my current and first dog! If it wasn't number 1 on this list, I would've been stunned!

I have always wanted to have a dog, and now its either shih tzu, labrador, or bichon frise!! all of them are so CUTEEE

My first dog was an Akita named Sammy. He died when I was 10 or 11. I miss that that little fluffball. I was already contemplating getting a Labrador (silver) as a friend for my dog, Cinnamon.

I've met several Great Danes. They are wonderful dogs, and they are very sweet. The Shitzu is great! Most of these breeds are awesome!

I had a Shih-Tzu named Buster. But during hurricane Irma a few years ago. We have him to a good family. I’m so excited to get my next Shih-Tzu puppy.

My family has been raising Labrador Retrievers for the last 2 generations. Despite the shedding and need for daily exercises, they are some of the most adaptable, playful and loving dogs around.

My beagle made a great first dog and I can’t believe them or any other hounds for that matter didn’t make the list! They’re great lovable family dogs who love to sleep

My first dog was a dachshund. We didn't plan on getting a puppy when we visited my aunt when I was 11. I'm glad we did. That cute dog was also my first pet.

My first dog was a Puddle that I named Cleo. She was an amazing dog I had her for almost 10 years until she passed and I named her after the poodle from Clifford the Big Red Dog. I even have a pitbull named Clifford. Pitbulls are great dogs too. I know that pit bulls get a bad prep for being bad dogs or whatever but honestly it's best to get them when they're puppies because there's so much easier to train when they're puppies. So when they grow up they're not going to be as aggressive as they get older.

Just got a German Shepherd last year as my first dog and she is my best friend and the best decision I ever made.

Papillon dogs are the only 'butterflies' I like. Our family leans more towards pound mutts. One of our dogs was a last chance dog, because of his size. He is sweet, loving, smart and dorky. He has Great Dane and some hard to pin down DNA, but we love him.

I am so happy the great dane was on this list. I had a female dane and she was MY dog, and I was HER person. Danes are amazing and so great with kids.

First dog for me was a bullmastiff. I grew up with three bullmastiffs in my lifetime. They are wonderful dogs to have around kids. Very gentle but you still need to watch the kids.

I had a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel as my first dog and he was a dream 😍

My first dog was a Bernese Mountain Dog, great for when the dog’s owner lives in a part of Canada.

I am the proud owner of a welsh corgi cardigan as my first dog and while she's extremely friendly and cute, she's also quite opinionated, stubborn and high-octane. Definitely bit down more than I can chew, but I still adore her. ^^;

My first dog was a jack russel terrier, which I still have at 12 years old, we also have a Labrador and golden retriever and a Rhodesian ridgeback, the best group of dogs ever…

My first dog (generally in my life but not actually mine) was a cavalier KC spaniel, then a Staffordshire bull terrier cross pit bull my dad owned. My very first MY OWN dog was a Staffordshire-pit bull mix female

My first dog was a Wire Fox Terrier/WFT I called Krypto. I didn't take care of him much but I was young back then and I think that today I would be a much better dog owner. Once I'm living under my own roof I think I'll get a WFT and do my job as a dog owner right this go around.

Ms MOJO is a good channel 👌 👍 👏

My first dog was a beagle, a good family dog and good with kids (I was 3 when he was homed here) everything was fun when he was around! He was smart, cuddly and did not bark at the family! (Ok, he barked at other dogs but…….) HOWEVER, there are obviously some things you have to look into before getting one: IF you have a garden and will let your beagle free in there, make sure the barriers don’t have any holes or anything because beagles tend to escape (mine was almost constantly outside and when he would run away, he would come back on his own) and the second point is: beagles eat whatever they see so if you have some kind of addiction in giving food to animals every time you see that their bowl is finished, try to pace yourself, and say that to your beagle too :D PACE YOURSELF BEAGLE, PACE YOURSELF!! ^^

I'm so happy that the Golden retriever is a great choice for first time dog owners, my dream could finally come true.

My dog Loki is mostly Shihtzu, but also Yorkie. Other traits too, but my god is he such a playful little rascal

Pomeranians are great dogs to have! 💕 🐕

I love my blue heeler she is such a cuddle baby!

German Shepherd! Great family dogs, love kids, very protective and love to play. I have so many stories of one of my GSD'S dragging my daughter around the yard by her hand. She used her mouth but never ever left teeth marks. My GS, Ella, right now is 2½ and I have a 7 month old grandbaby, she absolutely adores. I can't wait till he starts toddling around so they can really play together. German Shepherd's...best dogs ever ❤️❤️❤️

I've had Rottweilers, German Shepherds and Labs...all wonderful breeds!! I prefer the bigger guys not as "yappie" as the smaller guys.

my first dog was an Icelandic sheepdog then Icelandic sheepdog blend, I have had dog around me and my family for 30+ years

My first dog was a lab mix, I got her from the humane society when she was a puppy, she was a mix with a terrier and the other puppies were smaller, she was called the queen of the litter, she was larger and fed more. My lab mix was sweet, loving and smart. I took her to an obedience class the humane society offered and one of the trainers pointed her out as a dog eager to please, while a full blood terrier was pointed out as harder to train. I have has many dogs in my life and most were from the humane society and were mixed breeds, I think the mixed breeds sometimes avoid some of the physical problems and illnesses common in some pure bred dogs. Check out your humane society, save a life and have a companion that will give you unconditional love!

My first dog was a basset hound and now we have a samoyed 💕

My family has a Lhasa Apso and we named it Tiger after the dog from the Brady Bunch tv show. My sister likes to call our dog Mr. Doo

My family dog was a Bichon Frise Lapso Opso mix and he was the sweetest doggy Edit: we also had a yorkie as well and he was a nipper but still a sweet doggy

I love the hairstyle of the poodle @0:15 🥰🥰

Also a Great Pyrenees is awesome dog Recommend best for families

I have a Long Haired Chihuahua as my first pet that I got at Arizona since last year and I think it's a female cause I named it Elle because we have bonds of friendship together 💛💖🐶

my first dogs were two labrador dogs. one male with a darkish blue with white spots on the toes and chest named Bear and a dark brown female named Chila.

While I grew up with dog, the current dog, a border collie Australian shepherd mix, is the first dog where it's my soul responsibility.

MsMojo preparing to make a video about great first dog breeds. Greyhounds: lemme do it for youuuu

Good video

Thank you for the list, I would surely suggest a friend one of those dogs. Our first dog was mixed breed, kinda like a small Bernese. We have her for like 18 years… I still missed her.

MY FIRST DOG IS BAILEY, MY CHIHUAHUA/BEAGLE MIX; CHEAGLE. SHE'S MY BESTIE. THOSE EYES!!! I'M A SENIOR AND BAILEY GETS ME OUTDOORS AT LEAST TWICE A DAY AND WE HAVE FUN. SHE'S GOOD COMPANY FOR OVERCOMING DEPRESSION. SHE WAS A WILD PUPPY BUT PRETTY EASY TO TRAIN. SHE'S GOT ATTITUDE AND DOESN'T CARE FOR OTHER DOGS. HER BUDDY IS MY 11 YR OLD CAT, PEACHES. BEING A DOG PARENT IS A SOMETIMES EXPENSIVE, BIG RESPONSIBILITY WITH A HUGE REWARD. ON THOSE HARD DAYS BAILEY MAKES ME SMILE. YOU WILL NEVER FIND A BETTER FRIEND.

My dog is both #1 and #10. She's a lab/great dane mix.

I do love dogs they are cute 🐕🐩😍

Border Collies: Smart, sweet, affectionate. Where were they on this list????

my favorite breed is german shepherd and 2nd is husky, 3rd border collie :3

I recommend Maltese and Pomeranian.

My first dog was black lab blue healer best combo ever in my humble opinion

*Such a lovely and brave one🤗,I wonder where I can get one of these babies... They are good friend ,when you treat them right*

My first dog was a Sheepadoodle! *+*poodle mixed with sheepdog!

My first dog was a retired greyhound. Now I’m at pitbull, Rottweiler, pitweiler (pups of the first two) and English mastiff level.

My very first dog that I remember was a cocker spaniel named Kobe

Another good one would be Border Collie because they are easy to train but if you don’t have a big yard maybe not

My first dog was a miniature Poodle. Had him for 17 years. His name was Nicky.

I have 3 Yorkie poodle mix 2 girls and Buddy boy. they all have the same parents the girls are 3 and 6 lbs and Bud is 15 a Yorkie size toy poodle size and a 9 month old boy who is heading for 20lbs my. 1st dog as a kid was a cockapoo named Teddy best dog ever even bird hunting. Fuzzy was a standard poodle he was wonderful gentle and smart. my 1st adult dog was a shitz-zu also a very good girl went everywhere with me. our last two were a Maltese mix girls and a Yorkie boy. fabulous family dogs they left a hole in our hearts not yet fully healed. Ellie was sweet gentle loved everyone and was the best sick day cuddler. we love our current pack dearly 💙 life would be so dull without them

Growing up we had three Bichons and they passed away around the same time about three or four years ago but my brother got a pitbull shortly after and I’m not going to ever get another dog breed! I absolutely love our pitts because my family ended up getting another so we have two now and I can’t see my self with another dog breed!
