About This Quiz

If you don't know dogs very well, you may be under the mistaken impression that they're all mostly the same animal. Just a furry, barky beast that eats bones and chases cats and maybe will scare away trespassers. The truth is that dogs can be as different as people. They have a wide variety of abilities and personalities, and they're just as diverse as the people who own them. That's why some dogs are just better suited for certain people than others. That's also how we can tell which breed of dog lives in your heart.

Maybe it's because dogs have been companions with people for so many thousands of years that they've become so diverse and interesting. So able to reflect all of our best inner qualities and maybe even sometimes some of the worse ones. For those reasons, we're willing to bet that if you answer a few questions for us about who you are, what you like and what you don't like, then we'll be able to tell you just what kind of dog is taking up residence in your heart. If you doubt our dog prognosticating abilities, then all you need to do is take the quiz and find out for yourself.
