The trick to all training is to follow all behaviors with consequences. The dog sits, and gets a treat (positive reinforcement = a good thing). He barks, and gets a correction (punishment= a bad thing). Every behavior is followed by a consequence, good or bad, which affects the likelihood of the behavior being displayed again.

The most common mistake parents make when buying a family dog is choosing a dog which is cute or the right size rather than considering breed and temperament. When picking a breed or mix, it is important to consider the children who will be with the dog. Dogs should be solidly built—able to take roughhousing by children—and patient and gentle by nature. Although many breeds are good with children, the dogs listed below are most often recommended by veterinarians, dog trainers and animal behaviorists—professionals who handle dogs every day. This list was compiled based on the information from “The Dogs’ Most Wanted: The Top 10 Book of Historic Hounds, Professional Pooches, and Canine Oddities” By Alexandra Powe Allred.
