What kind of dog is small to medium size and generally quiet?

Rachel C: What kind of dog is small to medium size and generally quiet?
I am wondering what kind of dog is quiet, (I live in an apartment and don’t want my neighbors to hate me) although I do realize all dogs bark. I also need the dog to small to medium sized at most, and has shorter hair and doesn’t shed much. The dog also needs to be somewhat friendly because my fiance has a two year old nephew that visits.

Shiba inus don’t bark much at all and they are small.

Also the barkless dark a basenji, but some yoddle louding and bay, plus they are a little antisocial.

A great dog, would doesn’t bark very much or shed very much is a pitbull, dispite what you may have heard about them being unpredictable and turning, they are wonderful dogs would deserve a chance, mine doesn’t bark at all.

Rhodesian ridgebacks, although on the larger side, don’t bark much either.

Well all dogs shed…no way around that. But any short haired Terrier or any short haired dog. The breeds very it depends on the breed you want. Research on want you want get ideas. You will find the one you want.

You should get a greyhound rescue. I have two of them. They don’t bark and they are very friendly. They don’t shed and they don’t smell like dogs. Most of them are kennel trained so they are easy to house train. Now that I’ve had one, I would never have another kind of dog again.
While they are not small dogs, you won’t notice them any more than you would a small dog.
The only thing about Greyhounds is they MUST stay inside (not outside dogs) because they have no body fat, and they MUST be on a leash when they are outside because they are trained to run and are likely to get run over by a car.

i would recomend a Pitbull . they are upper medium sized and generally silent strong dogs who will guard you to the death . They tend to get nasty with other dogs . I would recomend getting them neutered/spayed . I think the males look better . The females get thin fast if they have pups , in my experience .
