7. Lab

Labradors were bred to be sensitive and gentle around people, and it is in their blood to love unconditionally. However, while they are still young, they might not be too gentle with kids as they are not aware of their size, and they simply can’t control their love and affection.

Also, when you don’t give them all the love they need back, they tend to be huge drama queens!

6. Rottweiler

Since the Rottweiler is a powerful working breed, they might be very foreboding to strangers, but when it comes to their owners they turn into emotional, sensitive and loving machines. They will stay loyal to their owners throughout their whole lives and will provide you with all the unconditional love any dog owner needs.
