About This Quiz

The American Kennel Club recognizes 192 breeds from the afffenpinscher to the Yorkshire terrier. That total doesn't include mixtures like puggles and labradoodles or any of the loving mutts available at shelters. However, it is a good starting point to discover which breed guards your soul

While individual dogs, like humans, have their own personalities, there are some traits that are associated with specific breeds. Some breeds are friendly, affectionate, and loyal. Others are proud, curious, and intelligent. Of course, there are plenty of dog breeds that have a combination of traits. For example, the Finnish lapphund is agile, alert, and friendly, whereas the pekingese is regal, affectionate and loyal. 

After the quiz, you may find that your favorite breed isn't the one that guards your soul. You could discover that what you value in a best friend may not be traits that you have yourself. Keep in mind, that it is fine to be different. Not everyone is brave, just like not everyone is a genius. 

Will you agree with your result? Are you convinced that a different dog breed guards your soul? There's only one way to find out how accurate we'll be. Scroll down to take the quiz and find out which dog breed you're most like!
