Be sure to consider your family situation. If you have young children it may be best to get a dog breed that is more placid and affectionate.

Pedigree dogs such as Yorkshire Terriers, Cocker Spaniels, Labradors, Golden Retrievers are among many types of dogs which fit into family life very well.

If you feel you need a dog more for protection it is important to get a breed that can be trained well and is very obedient such as a German Shepherd. You don't need a dog that is just plain aggressive. Research decisions on guard dogs very carefully.
