The dog is man's best friend, without a doubt, but friendship takes many forms. Some dogs do not seem to know or be too interested in who cares for them, who feeds them and walks them, sniffing the same way at every stranger they meet.

But not these races. The dogs on this list are loyal to their people in all aspects of life. Here are 16 of the most loyal dog breeds in the world.

It is important to note that this list is a generalization and not every dog ​​in these 16 breeds will be as loyal. As with anything else, there are always exceptions to the rule.

Here are the breeds of faithful dogs!

1. The Great Pyrenean Dog

Like many herd dogs, the Great Pyrenean Dog is a loyal guardian with a protective instinct and above-average devotion. This breed, as well as the Hungarian Kuvasz with which it is related, are some of the most majestic and imposing animals.

They are also calm, patient, intelligent, and extremely loyal. The Great Pyrenean dog requires a lot of early training and continuous exercise and mental stimulation - the same is true for Kuvasz, so it is advisable to start when they are puppies.

2. Collie

Besides being one of the happiest and most affectionate, the Collie is also one of the most devoted breeds. Not in vain the famous and beloved, for generations of people, Lassie was a Collie!

People associate the character with the race so much that in many people's minds it is Lassie and not Collie.

The smartest guard dogs

3. Rottweiler

Rottweiler gained a bad reputation, being used more in action movies, where the emphasis was on their stature and fighting ability. But these robust guardians are some of the sweetest and most loyal dogs in the world, suitable for any family.

The Rottweiler will protect you to death, he is the perfect guardian of you and your family. And that's especially because it can make a clear difference between their own and strangers, being reserved with the latter and extremely affectionate with their people. And that's exactly what you want from a dog, isn't it?

4. The German Shepherd

It's no surprise to see the German Shepherd on this list. German Shepherds are loyal to their pack and are so smart that they are one of the busiest breeds in the world, especially in the police!

The most obedient dogs

5. Beagle

Adorable, small, and extremely faithful. One of the most popular dog breeds of recent times, especially when it comes to taking a gift to a loved one and you want to go safe with it, the Beagle is the perfect companion for a child you want to make responsible, to you teach him how to take care of another being and which being to respond to with care, love, and loyalty.

6. Akita

This imposing breed of dog is called "extremely loyal" by canine associations around the world. These large, fluffy dogs of Japanese origin are always alert and brave, but also affectionate and patient with children. They certainly need a lot of early socialization. As puppies, they bear a strong resemblance to behaving bears!

7. Labrador Retriever

This list would not be complete without this family dog ​​that we all appreciate and love. Whatever it is, if it were to be lost, a Labrador retriever will instinctively know the way back to you, his man. These dogs, sociable and hardworking, love their people to the point where they would be able to stay non-stop in their souls.

This breed of dog, Brittany, also has as alternative names the Breton Quail, the Breton Sparrowhawk, and the Brittany Spaniel. This fun-loving race is also an "enthusiastic worker" who would love to do whatever mission you can. They are extremely exuberant, friendly, active, easy to train, and very intelligent.

9. Boxer

Boxers are very attentive and active, which makes them excellent guards for guarding. They are slightly agitated by strangers who are crazy enough to notice this loving but vigilant race.

10. Dachshund

Although they are small dogs, these big souls with long bodies are very protective of their pack/family. There are many stories about Dachshund rescuing his family from house fires and even bear attacks. They are agile and have an excellent hunting instinct.
