It depends on the size of the family.
Big...
Small...
there are lots more of dog breeds.
The Affenpinscher is a good family dog, but do best with older children. In general small dogs are not often recommended for households with children.
all dogs that are good dogs if there trained to be a good dog
If you like small dogs, probably yes. They are also called Morkies.
It is a dog kennel.
A good dog for small yard and children would be probably a cocker spaniel or chihuahua. Cocker Spaniels are very nice dogs, and so are chihuahuas. Chihuahua can be very protective over your family, and they act as if they are big dogs and not so little. Cocker Spaniels I hear are very good dogs, and are the most well-behaved dog in the US. I strongly recommend those dogs.
Probably, but then again maybe not. It depends on the dogs. Labradors are good dogs with everything: small animals, babies, children...you name it!
Small dogs that can swim well
No but its not a good idea
Toy poodle
friendly dogs like labradors or small dogs like cavaliers
I can't say. All dogs have a very good sense of smell, big or small. Springer Spaniels (Small to medium sized dogs) and Bloodhounds (Large dogs) both have a good sense of smell.

Chihuahua,but they can be loud sometimes. also a Boston terrier if you like short haired dogs.
All dogs, especially small ones, need lots of space and light. They also need access to clean water and ventilation. They also need as much exercise as large dogs, and can get aggressive if not trained and treated like a big dog.
Beagles are usually very happy dogs. Generally not "hyper" but not "sloths" either. They make great pets. They are high energy small "big" dogs. Usually not considered "yappy" dogs. They are a good mid range dog. They are good playing with smaller dogs such as pugs and Chihuahuas and are also good playing with bigger dogs such as Labradors
Big dogs are very bad for a childs life. a small dog such as a maltese is worthy and voted by many children.
Elephants are not the size of dogs, but their babies are small.
