5. Shih Tzu

Score: 21

Shih Tzus were bred to be companions, so one can say that being a family-friendly pet is a part of their genetic makeup. They are excellent with children but also tend to have a lot of independence, which can sometimes make the training process a little tricky. That is something to keep in mind for individuals who don’t have enough time to invest in training a dog.
