    My 100% dog was a Polish Lowland Sheepdog! I said moderate grooming maintenance!! Sheepdogs look like high maintenance to me.
    But Cocker Spaniel (our RB dog, DJ) and Australian Shepherd (Zoee) both came in at 97%!
    That was neat!!
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    I've tried all different ones, I really love messing with those for fun! lol Usually what I get is flat-coated retriever. They kind of interest me. I think their gorgeous dogs!

    It said I would do well with Spaniels (I have one, an ECS), but they say I should have a flat coated retreiver, not a Golden Retriever (Jake is my golden)...

    probably the energy level question, he was a bit challenging when he was young...

    Bearded collie 99%
    Dandie dinmont terrier, English setter, Siberian husky,Tibetan terrier, and Wirehaired pointing griffon all 98%
    This list continues from 97% on...

    My search yielded 121 results, did anyone else get that many?

    There's only one of those breeds I would have, its pretty obvious which one that is. Nothing against the other breeds, they just are not what I would choose.

    Haha, Standard Poodles...I would love one! If only they weren't so expensive lol. Looks right to me...Australian Shepherds came in 2nd. Out of the 8 given, I would probably only ever own a Standard Poodle, an Aussie, and the Pointer (I have one already!). Goldens and labs are too popular to me...don't know anything about the Irish Water Spaniel, not too into the snowy breeds (Canaan dogs) and Corgis are a little too small for my taste.

    Ha ha is right! I had 55 matches from 98 to 88 percent ranging from a miniature Dachsund to a Siberian Husky, Terv, Belgian, Am staff, Afghan and even a few of the spaniel and pointing breeds. The Standard Poodle wasn't even in there.


    My answers were; breed size-medium, energy level-couch potato, Exercise requirements-fetch the remote, Playfullness-a few tennis balls dropped in the lap, affection level-ocassional jump, lick and wagging tail, friendliness-very friendly to other animals, ease of training-quick learner, protecion ability, a calmer and less ferocious dog, grooming requirements and tolerance to heat and cold-not important.

    I wouldn't advise anyone to run out and buy a dog based on that test.

    It's good for a chuckle or two though!
    To train a dog you have to think like a dog!

    I was actually being very non-biased in my selections, some answers being a no-no for a Belgian (I can't like EVERYTHING about Belgians!). And yet, I still got it LOL.

    Belgian Sheepdog 98%
    Belgian Malinois 96%
    Belgian Tervuren 96%
    German wirehaired pointer 96%
    Australian Cattle Dog 95%
    Standard Schnauzer 95%
    Australian shepherd 94%
    Border Collie 94%
    I've been BOO'd!

    Basset Hound came up #1 for me, I'm not really sure it's my type of dog though. However Whippet and Italian Greyhound where both at 97%. We think Payson might be part Whippet or IG. He has a greyhound body and runs like one as well.

    Thanks for the great signature Kay!

    I get the same top 8 everytime I do this quiz, with the Toller coming up first every time (I try to be very non-biased aswell).

    Here they are:


    I'd say they're all pretty accurate, though I don't agree with the Springer at all.
