1. Poodle
This breed is very smart and also quite versatile and can adapt to the needs of its owners, which is exactly why it is on our list. This adaptability is the main trait that makes the poodle suitable for seniors.
At first, you might think that poodles are not really low-maintenance, but because they can adapt so well, they tend to mirror the energy level of the owner. This dog is eager to please you and doesn’t need a ton of exercise.
Loving and nurturing the poodle usually helps it get along with all the members of the family. And the best part about these dogs is that they don’t shed! It is true that they need grooming once every 6 or 4 weeks, but let’s be real, this is not such a big deal.
