Quiz: Know Your Dog Breeds

Test your knowledge of dog breeds with our quiz.

Published in : Pets » Breeds

Do you fancy yourself a dog breed expert? Do you know an Irish Wolfhound from a Scottish Deerhound, an Australian Shepherd from an Australian Cattle Dog? Well, Dr. Dog, put your pooch powers to the test with our quiz.

I’m considered one of the most intelligent dog breeds. I’ve got an undeserved reputation as snooty, but I’m friendly and I love to learn tricks. I also come in three very different sizes: toy, miniature, and standard.

    Missing breed: Papillon (spelling?)

    Poodles come in four sizes (not three as indicated within the first question).

    Tea cup
    Toy
    Mini
    Standard

    Cheryl, Tea Cup is not a recognized size for the Poodle. This designer size is simply a result of selective breeding of undersized toy poodles. Any breed with "tea cup" in front of it is just a bred down version of another breed - and if you think about it, they are bred down from the specimens who were essentially the runts and not the cream of the crop. Beware of breeders hawking 'tea cup' dogs, they are generally not reputable or reliable and there stock generally lack the appropriate health clearances.

    In Europe however, there is a fourth size of the Poodle Breed, but it is the Medium.
