Here you will find a list of dog breeds that are generally known to be more quiet than most other breeds. Please note that a dog's temperament can differ from individual to individual, so getting a dog of one of these breeds doesn't guarantee a quiet disposition. In order to prevent excessive barking in any breed, the owners should always remember to provide the dog with proper training as well as to satisfy its natural needs.
