15 Best Dog Breeds For Seniors

13. Cavalier King Charles Spaniel

Just need a snuggle buddy to be by your side while you watch TV? The Cavalier can be just that for you. They aren’t super active and love laying beside you. Since they are pretty small, weighing an average of 11-18 pounds, they are quite easy to take care of. But, they do need to be regularly groomed, so a visit to the dog salon for hair brushing, ear cleaning, etc. is a must.
