Most of these are flat-faced breeds as bulldogs, pugs etc.

The soundest breeds have long muzzles and well-developed nostrils.


Bred by conscientious professional breeders the following can be among the soundest:

German Shepherd Dog
Labrador Retriever
Collie
Golden Retriever
Canaan Dog
American Foxhound/Walkers

The more a breed resembles a wolf the more a breed tends to be strong.

People should breed dogs with health sense and not fashion sense. Besides being ugly, bulldogs and pugs have many health issues.

Fortunately, the handsome breeds are among the more healthy dogs.
