All dogs love their family, but not all dogs greet everyone with the same enthusiastic perked-up ears and slobbery kisses. And when it comes to the friendliest dog breeds, there's no definitive rule as to which dogs are always friendly toward everyone and which pups prefer to stick to those they know and trust. "Any breed can be taught to be friendly, and any breed can be shy and unpredictable, depending on their socialization in their first nine weeks of life," says Pam Nichols, DVM, past president of the American Animal Hospital Association. A dog's friendliness depends on two major factors: her exposure to new people, animals, and situations early in her life, and genetics. If a puppy's parents are "scaredy cats and shy," Nichols says, there's a chance she and her siblings will follow suit. "Demand a breeder who does early developmental socialization; that's the first step," Nichols says. "Because if you get a dog who's 12 weeks old and who's never been exposed to anything, you're in trouble. A 12-week-old who is shy and introverted is not going to get friendly and outgoing with training." While every dog is an individual with their own unique personality, these are some of the dogs who are most likely to greet you at the park with bright eyes and wagging tails. www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/12-friendliest-dog-breeds-love-092900280.html
