Usually, dogs are acquired by people who see their pet first and foremost as a loyal friend and reliable companion.
Without experience, you can get lost in all the variety of breeds. And no one will argue that every dog breeder wants their pet to reciprocate, recalling the plots of feature films about animals.
And before making a choice, you need to find out what this character trait depends on - breed or upbringing.
Experts believe that these qualities largely depend on the breed. Many dogs are simply proud by nature, while others consider their purpose to be to serve humans.
"Fighting" breeds
That's what they were called before. Now some breeds are prohibited from being kept in certain conditions.
But otherwise, it is the fighting and hunting breeds of dogs that are considered the most loyal friends. These are the Rottweiler, Doberman, Bull Terrier, Caucasian Shepherd, etc.
"Pocket" breeds
Fans of small dogs will not be disappointed either. Loyalty does not depend on the dog's size at the withers.
Pugs, French bulldogs, spaniels and poodles are no less loyal to humans than German shepherds.
As for self-confident dogs, it is believed that huskies are the ones that run away from people most often.
