What your choice of dog breed tells about your personality

You may like a labrador more than a cocker spaniel, while your friend may prefer a pug. Ever thought why this happens? There's a whole research that says people who are drawn to certain dog breeds share their personality traits. Find out more on that below.

2/8

German Shepherd

If your choice of dog breed is German Shepherd, you are someone who is strong and dependable. You are tenacious and like to focus just like German Shepherds. What's more? You are someone who knows how to get the job done. People can rely on you and you can very well take charge. You're the protector of the family and people are always loyal to you and grateful to have you.

3/8

Labrador

If you're someone who loves this dog breed, it means you are lovable and even-tempered. You're also very kind and the type of person whose guest bedroom has all the good stuff to treat a guest the right way when they are over at yours. You're loyal to the ones you love.

4/8

Boxer

People who choose Boxer as their most loved dog breed are often cheerful, bright, confident and know how to light up every room when they walk in. They can turn a small chat into a full-blown long conversation and an interesting one. They also have an intelligence that attracts people around them.

5/8

Pomeranian

You're the life of the party if you love Pomeranians. You're an extrovert and extremely social. You know how to work your charm on those around you. Last but not the least, someone has to really upset you big time for you to stop liking them.

6/8

English Cocker Spaniel

You're the type of person who loves to have nicer things in life. You don't mind wearing an expensive top and pair it with local street-bought bottoms. You're quite generous and kind and also get along really well with others.

7/8

Pug

If your choice of dog breed happens to be Pug, you might come off as stubborn and someone who can't be bugged when you have made up your mind. But you're also very charming and clever which balances it out.

8/8

Shih Tzu

You're lively and outgoing and always find joy in life if you are someone who loves Shih Tzu. You love organizing brunch outings with your partner or chat at a barista while you wait for the coffee to be made. You're like sunshine for a lot of people.
