Welcome to BestDOG!
Welcome to BestDOG!The program that lets you find the dog breeds that are best for you. It's fun!
You can see how breeds compare on various traits by clicking the trait in the left panel. For example, to see which breeds are the most intelligent, click Intelligence. Go ahead, try it! Once you sort by a trait, you can click on the name of a breed to get information about the breed.
OK, so now that you know a German Shepherd is smarter than a Bulldog, what can you
do next?
BestDOG helps you find
which breeds are best for you.
This involves answering a bunch of questions about your ideal dog. The questionnaire asks
what your ideal value is for each trait -- for example, you want a dog that's very playful
and doesn't need a lot of exercise -- and how important each trait is to you -- for
example, it's very important to have a dog that's good with children, but you don't really
care if it sheds or not.
Once you complete the questionnaire, BestDOG will take all your preferences into consideration to rank the breeds in order of compatibility. The survey takes less than five minutes. Just click here to begin. Good Luck!
