Quiet Dog Breeds That Rarely Bark

If you share walls with neighbours, this is the rating that decides whether dog ownership stays peaceful. The breeds here are naturally less vocal. Bear in mind that any dog barks when it is bored, under-exercised or anxious about being alone — a quiet breed lowers the baseline, it does not silence it.

How we picked these: breeds we rate 2 out of 5 or lower for barking. The list is generated from our own breed ratings rather than hand-picked, and refreshes whenever we update a breed profile — so any breed we have not rated yet simply is not shown.
