When you think of a family dog, it is most probable that a golden retriever pops up in your mind. These dogs are known all over the world as a breed that is friendly and loyal to the core. Remember the movie ‘Air Bud’? Who can forget the special dog that proved its loyalty in such an impressive way? If this dog was yours, you will be glad to know how ideal they are as pets to keep your home safe and warm.

Yorkshire Terrier

Even though this breed of dogs is small in size, they are one of the bravest ones you could find. They will be quick to protect you from strangers they feel are a threat to your safety. They are full of spunk and will not hesitate to attack potential threats. You will be wise not to anger these little dogs because their confidence truly makes up for their lack of size.

St. Bernard


From what we can see from the movies “Beethoven”(and Beethoven’s 2nd – 5th), it clearly shows us that St. Bernards are the quintessential family dogs. They are protective when necessary but are also very playful when they want to be. They have been known to rescue a few people from snow avalanches, with a barrel of wine tied around their necks.

Bulldog


We all agree that the bulldog is one of the most adorable breeds to ever exist. These dogs are known to have a stubborn nature and are very easy to fall for. They are also known to be protective and very warm too. They can get very intimidating if they sense danger around them.

American Staffordshire Terrier

The American Staffordshire Terrier is known for being very submissive. They will do whatever they can to please their owners. They have had a reputation for fighting dogs but only because they listen to their masters. These dogs are naturally very loving and caring with whoever keeps them.

They easily get attached and are also possessive of their owners. It is funny to note that such a tiny dog can have such a loud personality.
