Everyone knows that dogs are our humans’ most loyal partners. But the editor is here to tell you that there are actually different varieties. For example, some dogs with strong personalities are not suitable for ordinary people to keep. But there are also dogs that are absolutely loyal to their owners. Today I will take stock of them for you.

Fifth place: Doberman Pinscher

Doberman Pinscher is also divided into American Doberman and German Doberman. German Dobermans are more ferocious and aggressive than American Dobermans, so they are often seen wearing masks when going out in public places. The Doberman Pinscher has a loyal personality and a strong sense of protecting its owner, making it a very suitable guard dog.

Fourth place: Akita

The Akita is an extremely loyal dog breed, but its strong character has a hint of stubbornness. But this does not affect its loyalty to its master. I believe many people have an impression of the movie "Hachiko", right? Akita Inu is such a kind of dog, and its loyalty is recognized by everyone.

Third place: Tibetan Mastiff

When it comes to Tibetan Mastiff, I believe many people are familiar with it. It is a large fierce dog originating from Tibet, my country. It is also a loyal guard dog. Look for someone with a fierce personality and strong fighting ability. They are very friendly to their owners, but they are completely different when it comes to strangers. If the owner is not present, strangers must not approach, otherwise it will be very dangerous.

Second place: Golden Retriever

The Golden Retriever is generally recognized as a more obedient dog breed. It has an easy-going personality and is naturally like this. It has a high IQ and is very loyal to its owner. But unfortunately, Golden Retrievers cannot act as guard dogs because of their personalities. More suitable as a family companion dog.

First place: Labrador

Labrador is also called a roving dog. It is one of the three most non-aggressive dog breeds in the world. It is loyal, honest, docile, cheerful and has a high IQ. They are loyal to their owners and friendly to children. They are often used as guide dogs, police dogs and search and rescue dogs. Of course, it is also a pet companion dog that is more suitable for families.
