The quietest dog breeds include the Bulldog, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Bernese Mountain Dog, French Bulldog, Borzoi, Basenji, and Scottish Deerhound.
Cavalier King Charles spaniel
“Most dogs of this breed are quiet, gentle, love people, and get along with other dogs, ” says Dr. Greer. They fit right in with active families or homebodies. If they had a doggy profile, it would read, “I'm happy when you're happy and content with whatever the family wants to do.
Dachshund. One of the most popular small dog breeds, the Dachshund is a devoted and lively little pup. Because of their little legs, they only need a couple of short walks and some playtime to keep them happy and healthy.
1) Border Collie
Border Collies were originally bred as working dogs and certainly have the energy level to prove it! While they make good family pets, make sure to get them exercise.
Most puppies start to calm down as they approach their maturity age, which is usually around 12 months, but for larger breeds it can be more likely to occur between 18 months and 2 years.
In temperance tests (the equivalent of how many times your kid can poke your dog in the eye before he bites him) of all breeds the most tolerant was the Golden Retriever. The second most tolerant was the pit bull.
Australian Cattle Dog
Australian Cattle Dogs are smart and loyal pets that need a lot of mental and physical activity to keep them from getting bored. Crucially, they are not known for barking.
After all, the Basenji is the only dog unable to bark. However, a Basenji can't be considered “silent.” Many of them yodel and, although they don't bark, they don't have a problem getting their point across.
Basenji. The basenji is literally known as the "barkless dog" because they make so little noise, but the breed's not completely mute. When they do decide to speak up, the hounds make odd noises that sound similar to yodels.
Golden Retriever
Golden Retrievers are one of America's most popular “family dogs.” This breed is incredibly happy, friendly, and outgoing. They are eager to please, get along well with children and other animals, and love a good cuddle. These dogs are very active, so get ready to play and exercise with them every day.
The adolescent period typically begins around six months of age, and will be over when a dog reaches physical maturity around two to three years old. The most pronounced behavioral issues will be noticed between six to 12 months old.
The most challenging time of raising a puppy is the adolescent period. Dogs become “teenagers” and seem to forget everything they have ever been taught. This period is individual to each dog, but it may begin when he's about eight months old and continue until he's two years old.
Like humans, dogs go through a rebellious “teenager” phase (around 5 months to 18 months). During this time, they'll often test their owners, seeing what they can get away with. Being firm and consistent with your training will help establish boundaries.
All dogs, from basset hounds to Great Danes, get the zoomies. Puppies and young dogs may zip around more often simply because they have more energy to burn than older dogs.
The Border Collie is easily number one our list, and the same can be said for other lists you will find. This breed requires both mental and physical exercise to stay happy and healthy. As a responsible Border Collie owner, it's your due diligence to ensure that they get training time and exercise they need to thrive.
Breeds such as the French bulldog, Cavalier King Charles spaniel, Bichon Frise, and Greyhound are some of the easiest dog breeds for first-time owners.
