I like including the dogs. They are a great addition, especially if they can hunt or catch food.

Personally, I would opt for a fairly larger group for protection and battle situations. Personally, I'd want a group of about 5-10 family members with their respective spouses. I'm sure in some occasion we'll encounter other people or groups, as to ensure breeding outside the family. If not, at least the children can mate successfully as cousins, 2nd cousins, or 3rd cousins.
Having a family group would help to establish the natural hierarchy already found within families, and also help to ensure more of a trust factor. Family members would fight harder to protect one another. If SHTF, the first people I'm organizing is my family. More mouths to feed, but more protection and love.

If anyone's interested here's a copy of the fictional manifesto that the story of Noise: A Novel is based around. I found it in it's entirety on the book's website
