He is surely a longhair domestic, but picking a look alike there are two breeds - the Maine Coon and the Siberian.   Siberian are often said to behave alike dogs.

Nora is a lot like what you described too! Plays fetch, greets me at the door, very vocal, comes when called etc. I know no idea of her background because she's a rescue, but we thought part maine coon.

Your kitty is very handsome!! Love the photo of him on the stairs. It's like he's saying, "Are you coming or not?!"
