Some dogs pull while walking but with proper training the dog can learn how to walk without pulling. Also, using a head collar, like a Gentle Leader, makes walking so much easier as the dog can not pull on the leash. It would be safe to adopt any of those breeds as long as the particular dogs get along. You would need to introduce them to see how their personalities mesh.
