My family is looking for a family dog. We would like for it to be a calm pet that doesn’t have chewing tendencies and can be a protector if needed. I was wondering if you have any breed recommendations? Thank you

My favorite breed is a Golden Retriever. They are truly the best family dogs ever, great with kids. They do need exercise daily, but don't tend to have chewing tendencies. I had a Golden Retriever for 12 years, best dog ever, and she was protective as needed.
