5 Healthier Than Average Dog Breeds

These breeds are thought to be among the healthiest and need lesser visits to vets as compared to other breeds.

With a unique genetic ability and a lower level of inbreeding, mixed breed dogs are generally among the healthiest.

They are also low maintenance when it comes to grooming but it also generally depends on the type of dog.
