Just thought this was cool. Story is from almost 4 years ago, though. I wonder how many people have been lucky enough to have dogs like this?

What's the best caring dog like that that can also protect? One that can protect you but also pull you out of a river?

Many sorts of dogs actually. It all depends on the training. German Sheppards, Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers, American Boxers, and so on. Do note though, you will need to keep the dog active.

And also happy, you don't want your dog to hate you after all, by the way, what about huskies? I believe they are pretty good companions as well.

Just about any large-breed dog can be trained. Huskies are highly intelligent, which means you need to keep them busy, well trained, and entertained. A bored dog will get into trouble. They will use that intelligence to get into trouble. And they are vocal animals, which is fun but it's something you should be aware of when training them. And the shedding, dear lord the shedding.

Most kind of Shepard dogs are decent for that, but I’m no expert. There’s a reason cops use German Shepards.

It's because all cops secretly want to be German nazis

My vote for a good dog that is 100% loyal and protective is either a German Shepherd or a Labrador.

This little girl (youtube.com) is the safest girl in the world.

"That's a herd of German shepherds, that makes this little girl a German shepherd shepherd; & if she were German, she would be a German German shepherd shepherd."
