You can’t choose your family - except for your dog!!! Animal Planet has a really cute dog breed selector where you can enter in all of the attributes that are important to you as a pet owner and it will list a number of breeds that match your criteria.It is important to choose the right dog that going to be the best fit for your family and lifestyle in order to maximize the full potential of the human-canine bond.
I took the test and was found I have a compatibility of 99% with a Cavalier King
Charles Spaniel. Phew, Louis lucked out on that one!

This doesn’t always mean a purebred is the only way to find a great companion for your family! On Petfinder, you can look at local dogs up for adoption, see what each pets dominant breeds are and research those to get an idea of what to expect. In addition, many of the dogs available on Petfinder have been living in loving foster homes and the caretakers will be able to tell you a lot about the dog’s personality and needs.
Happy searching!
