I'm sure you will get answers for vets that have much more authoritative advise than mine. I'm no vet. I have had several experiences with mixed dog/cat/people families. As for breed of cat, I've always been an American short-hair guy, which I think is fancy talk for just a cat. I recently added a new rescue dog to the family of already 4 dogs and 2 cats, all very mature. I've found that if you keep the cat separated from the dog(s) with something like a baby fence so that the cat can roam freely but get away from the dog when it wants to, the cat will accept the interloper in a few weeks. They do need their down time, though.

What types of dog like cats?

There is no specific breed of dog that likes cats. Individual dogs of any breed can learn to like specific cats, particularly if the cats are introduced to them as kittens. The reason for the conflict between dogs and cats is because of crossed signals; the body language is, in some cases, diametrically opposite in the two species -- a dog lying on his back is saying "I surrender", a cat in the same position is saying "I'm ready, come near and I'll kill you." The young of any species are usually tolerated by their elders, and quite often a dog will care for a kitten, thinking it to be a juvenile dog, if a strange one. As the kitten grows into a cat, the dog will continue to accept its odd behaviour.
