9) Pug

Pugs rank among the top when it comes to the cutest dogs of the world. Most girls tend to break the sound barrier because they exclaim ‘Aww! So sweet’ just at the mention of the name of Pugs. These mini marvels would give any stuffed animal from Archies tough competition at any given point of time. These living dolls have a sunny and mellow disposition. They are extremely friendly, well-natured, loving, caring and affectionate. They are quite frisky and full of energy and also faithful and loyal. Though they don’t make good watch-dogs or companions to handicapped people, Pugs have just the right temperament to keep kids happy and occupied. These sensitive tykes need proper training to stay on track. Only then will Pugs follow us wherever we go.

10) Saint Bernard -

Saint Bernards are nothing like then expressionless face. They are mild, loving and affectionate with children. They are also very patient, obedient and docile. So, they can keep an eye on enthusiastic tykes. Despite their size, they do not seem to intimidate kids because of their mellow nature. They, however, should not be instigated for they do tend to get a bit unruly. They are faithful, intelligent and can be easily trained. Also, they need to be familiarized with their own kind. One should remember Saint Bernards as Beethoven and not like Cujo, which terrorizes people even now. After all, any animal would become disruptive, when instigated.
