Newfoundland
The Newfoundland dog breed was initially developed as a working dog to pull nets for fishermen and haul wood from the forest, but this is not their only skill – the breed is really good at swimming and makes an excellent family companion as well.
The Newfoundland is a sweet, loving, smart and loyal dog that loves to spend time with children. They are protective, gentle and friendly with them. Fans of this breed say that they are not only quiet, but also good at rescuing people from the water due to their swimming abilities.
In addition, they are easy to train, as Newfies tend to quickly learn new tricks and commands. Moreover, the socializing and training process should begin at an early age, otherwise, you will have a large dog breed with problematic behavior.

Thank you for all this information. Keep writing about different types of dogs and their personalities. Keeping people informed before they adopt or buy a pet. I really enjoyed reading this.
You left out husky and Alaskan malamute.
You left out the Japanese Chin.
The sharpei is not a good family breed dog or dog for most people. It was bred to fight and retains that aggression. Training cannot override centuries of breeding for fighting and it’s a liability to attack people or other animals without warning. My neighbor’s sheep were disemboweled by a sharpie that jumped their fence and attached them. Chow is another with too much selection for aggression in the blood. These are both on the uninsurable list for homeowner’s insurance for a reason.
I’m surprised Boston Terrier is not on this list. My Boston Terrier will only bark when told to.
