Many people dream of having a four-legged friend for many years, but are hesitant to get a dog because of concerns that its loud barking may disturb others.

There is a way out - take a closer look at breeds that simply cannot bark or do so rarely and quietly.

Basenji

Basenjis are the dogs that cannot bark because of the special structure of their throat. Instead of a ringing "Woof!" from their mouth comes a growling, grumbling, croaking, groaning and snorting.

In addition, these dogs are distinguished by their cleanliness and do not have a repulsive odor.

Deerhound, or Scottish greyhound

Representatives of this breed can bark, but they don’t like to do it, just like they don’t like to howl or whine.

If you decide to get such a pet, you should consider their impressive size, love for people and intolerance of loneliness.

Shar Pei

Shar Peis can "raise their voices," but generally they rarely need to bark.

The distinctive features of these dogs include a calm character, high intelligence and devotion to the owner. However, Shar Pei also have a tendency to independence, and sometimes to show aggression, so it is important for their owners to educate and socialize their pet.
