    Wishing to bring a pet dog into your home? Some canine breeds are easier to own than others, particularly for amateur dog parents.

    To find the easiest dog breeds to own, we looked at a number of crucial qualities. And you might be surprised by the characteristics that matter most. You might think you want a smart canine. But very intelligent dogs aren't always the easiest to train, because trainability is more about a dog's desire to follow instructions than his capability to comprehend them.

    You might think an active dog will be the simplest to keep healthy. A dog with a lower energy level and no genetic predisposition to disease will actually be simpler to deal with. Plus, choosing a dog with an easygoing temperament - and minimal grooming needs - will go a long way toward keeping you sane.

    Top 5 Easiest Dog's To Own

    2. Border Terrier - The border terrier is very "happy," "plucky," and "affectionate." This dog has a moderate energy level but a more laid-back personality than many other terriers.

    3. Bulldog - If you want a patient and mellow dog, you can't go wrong with the bulldog. You can efficiently train your bulldog - especially if you use lots of praise and rewards and maintain a sense of humor.

    4. Cavalier King Charles Spaniel - They can be loyal hiking partners or shameless couch potatoes, relying on the owner's personality - as long as they get a satisfying walk each day.

    5. Basset Hound - These medium-sized dogs aren't very active. And while most dog owners won't put the basset hound's hunting prowess to the test, they'll cherish the breed's extreme patience with children.

Tosa Information

The Tosa Ken is a large, short-coated dog, with a stately manner and a robust, powerful, and agile body. The body is slightly longer than tall. The head is large and broad with a boxy muzzle, pendulous flews, and clearly observable dewlap. There is wrinkling on the head, particularly when the dog is alert. Ears are of medium size, drop, and set high. The tail is uncut, very thick at the base, and tapering to the tip. The Tosa Ken may be solid colored, brindle, black with markings, or pied. The overall appearance should be that of a massive but dynamic and flexible athlete, a true canine samurai.

The Tosa Ken is normally a tranquil, quiet, and obedient dog with a calm but vigilant demeanor. The Tosa is quietly affectionate with its own family but may be somewhat aloof with strangers. This breed is also by nature watchful of other dogs and may react aggressively to dogs it considers intruders. Overtly aggressive behavior toward humans is uncharacteristic of the breed and highly undesirable. The Tosa responds best to positive-enforced training methods because of an inherent desire to please its owner. This breed matures slowly and individual dogs may not reach their prime until as late as four years of age.
