Top 6+ of the Loudest Dog Breeds that Love to Bark
2) Beagle
Beagles were bred to howl during hunts to alert hunters of their location and prey, making them another loud dog breed.
"The Beagle is a scent hound bred in the UK to hunt hares, rabbits and foxes. Beagles have a distinctive howl or bark, and possess a wide variety of vocalization," adds Britt.
"Their behavior has been genetically passed down through generations, making it a characteristic trait of the breed."
3) Husky
Siberian Huskies don't necessarily bark a lot, but they're described as a talkative breed. They will whine, howl, groan and 'talk' for hours, explains Britt.
He continues: "There are various reasons for this; firstly, studies show their DNA is closely linked to wolves, so their vocalisation is more similar to that of their ancestors. Secondly, Huskies were sled dogs and travelled over large distances; communication was important and a whine or howl will travel a further distance than a bark."
4) Bichon Frise
Britt says: "The Bichon Frise, in particular, can be quite vocal and has a distinct high-pitched bark.
"This breed has an extensive history, which spans over decades and several continents, and generally speaking, has a playful and curious demeanour."
