I will second Double K on rat terriers. We had one for 11 years. He was the most neurotic dog we've ever owned, but he was protective of the house. He wasn't much of a barker unless somebody was actually at the door, but if somebody passed near his hackles were up and he growled. He was also my heart dog - slept by the door while I was on the road.
Now we have a corgi/cattle dog mix. He's more of a barker, but sleeps in the bedroom with us and doesn't get up unless there is something untoward outside.
