Do you have a canine preference? What your favorite breed says about you...


It’s not unusual for people to look like their pets - and that’s not all they have in common...


Researchers from Bath Spa University looked at lots of people and their pooches and found some common personality traits by breed:

* Toy dogs: People who own Chihuahuas, Yorkies, Poodles, and Pugs may be cute but they’re also usually intelligent and creative. 


* Shepherds and other herding breeds: These owners are usually extroverts and very comfortable in their own skin or fur.
* Gun dogs: These breeds include Irish Setters, Golden Retrievers and Spaniels. Their owners are super agreeable and like to go with the flow.
* Utility dogs: Owners of Dalmatians, Bulldogs and Bichon Frise tend to be very conscientious and are always looking out for the other guy.
* Terriers: If you’ve got a Jack Russell, Staffordshire Bull or Miniature Schnauzer, there’s a good chance you’re the moody type and a little unpredictable.
* Working dogs: Boxers, Rottweilers and Great Danes are usually owned by someone who is agreeable, intelligent and confident.
* Hounds: People who like Beagles, Bassets, Dachshunds and Greyhounds are a stable bunch. They may be a bit predictable but they’re also dependable and loyal.
