    So, in the spirit of a good time, we combed through our breed profiles to find the pet dog breeds that tend to be the most enjoyable loving. It's crucial to bear in mind that most of these breeds are not couch potatoes or shrinking violets and, in fact, generally need lots of mental and physical stimulation so they don't become bored.

The Boerboel is self assured and fearless. It is highly devoted to family and affectionate with children it knows, but can be aggressive toward strangers.
