About This Quiz

Let's do things a little differently during this quiz! It would be easy to ask you about your relationship with your dog. We're not sure if that would give us a true measure of your dog's love-o-meter, though. Instead, we've asked your dog to relay some questions they would like answered through us. Once you're done 'fessing up to your pooch, we'll let you know if they feel loved or not! 

There comes a time in every relationship where the other person wants to know a few things. The relationship with your dog is no different! Dogs can bark, but they can't use words as well as you do. We've been given a rare opportunity to hear their side, and we want to see how you respond to the questions they've given us. You know you can't lie to your dog, so be as honest as you can. 

When you've answered all the questions your dog gave us to ask, we'll tally them up and measure them against your dog's needs. Will they feel as loved as your dog makes you feel, or will you have some changing to do? Explain your life together to your pooch, and we'll let you know what they're thinking!
