There are dog breeds whose affectionate temperament places them at the top of the French's favorite dog lists. While popular belief has it that small dogs tend to be more aggressive and larger dogs more aggressive, this is not always the case.

Let's not forget that the first years of a dog's life, its socialization and its education are largely responsible for the attitude it will have once an adult. Each breed of dog has its own little character. The German Shepherd has it all. The Malinois is a very affectionate, intelligent, sporty and playful dog. The Labrador, sand, black or chocolate color, is a wonderful family dog. In the category of easy-going dogs, the Labrador easily ranks among the top dogs. The Golden Retriever is a perfect dog for families, especially those with children. The English bulldog is a sociable and sensitive dog who hates being alone and can sulk his master when he is scolded. It is a good working dog, often used as an assistance dog, rescue dog or search dog.
