#11 – Miniature Pinscher
The Miniature Pinscher is a small German breed that, despite popular misconception, is not intended to be a small version of the Doberman Pinscher. They are strong-willed and independent dogs that are not recommended for novice owners, as they can and will try to rule the household and can become very noisy.
#12 – Dachshund
The Dachshund is a German short-legged breed used for rabbit and badger hunting. Their tough-to-catch prey required a strong temperament, and Dachshunds are not soft dogs. Without proper training and exercise, they can become excessive barkers.
#13 – German Shepherd Dog
The German Shepherd Dog is known far and wide, not to be the biggest barker of the dog world, but the most prominent whiner. Only German Shepherd owners experience the level of talkativeness this breed has. Unfortunately, people either love it or hate it, and this does lead to unexpected rehoming when uneducated buyers don’t want to live with the noise.
#14 – Boston Terrier
The Boston Terrier is nicknamed “The American Gentleman,” although the breed does have an inclination for nuisance barking. They can and should be trained to prevent excess noise, but they are an active breed that will become unruly if under-stimulated.
#15 – Pomeranian
The Pomeranian is a small spitz-type dog with a personality far larger than its physical size. They are active and playful dogs that, despite their size, do need regular exercise. They are prone to nuisance barking and early training can help establish house manners.
