Basenji
The Basenji dog breed was originally developed to flush small game into hunters’ nets and to control village rodent populations, but nowadays, they make excellent pets for any kind of family, especially for those who don’t want a dog that barks a lot for no reason.
According to animal experts, this dog breed can adapt to apartment living and can be the best option for novice pet parents because they are easy to train. The breed is known for not barking, but of course, they are not silent. To be more specific, they emit a yodel-like sound (commonly called a “baroo”) instead of a traditional bark.

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.
