Otterhound

While the Otterhound doesn’t get as much publicity as the other dogs on this list, it doesn’t make them any less of a good companion for seniors. This breed has an average life span of 12 years. While they require a regular amount of exercise, we this it’s not a bad thing when you get an intelligent, faithful, independent, and loving friend!

Poodle

Poodles are very popular among senior dog-owners, and for good reason! This dog is one of the smartest breeds out there. You can be sure they’ll make loyal companions. They have a loving and gentle nature as well as the ability to adapt to the spaces most seniors tend to live in. We very much recommend them if you tend to have allergies since they have a hypoallergenic coat.
