What makes your dog tick? And how do you know if a dog has the potential
to be a good fit with your family?
A great place to start is thinking
about the job the dog was bred to do. Based on the physical and
personality traits of the 195 breeds recognized by the AKC, most fall
under one of the seven major dog groups. These seven major dog groups
are working, herding, hound, sporting, non-sporting, terrier, and toy.
