When you’re about to get a new pet, how do you decide which one will be the best fit?‌ Figuring this out is especially important when getting a dog because there are big differences among species. Thanks to Rover, there’s a way to make this decision easier.

Rover is a company that helps match dog owners with walkers and boarding facilities. Their latest tool uses information about animal behavior and what you tell them about your lifestyle to match you with your perfect dog. Certified dog trainer Nicole Ellis helped develop the tool along with the employees of the Humane Society of Greater Kansas City.

The software uses available information to give you the best match among the top 50 most popular dogs breeds in the U.S. The questions you get to answer ask you how active you plan to be with your dog, how big your home is, whether you’ve had a dog before, etc. In the end, you get a short list of three breeds that would be the best fit for you so you can make an informed decision.

Bad vibes don‘t go with my outfit! 💁🏼‍♀️ 😂 #happytogether Ich weiß auch nicht, irgendwie sieht Happy wie eine gebleichte Version von Nicky aus.🤷🏼‍♀️😂 Heutiges Thema: Gruppenarbeit, wenn Nicky, Theo und Happy Menschen wären.👨‍👨‍👦 Nicky würde die Rolle einnehmen, die nie zu einem Meeting erscheint (wir kennen sie alle). Theo wäre bemüht, würde den ganzen Tag erzählen, was für geniale Ideen er hat und sich schlussendlich vor Eifer mit der Schere ein Auge ausstechen. Naja und Happy würde sich dann um die Gruppenarbeit allein kümmern. Aber für ihn wäre es weniger eine Last und viel eher eine Wohltat für die Menschheit. „Mit etwas Glitter sieht die ganze Angelegenheit auch wieder ganz entzückend aus.“ Solche Sätze würde er sagen.🤓😂 Er würde die Nacht durch machen, damit die Gruppenarbeit rechtzeitig fertig wird, würde dann morgens neben dem Zähneputzen noch eine Hühnerbrühe für Theo kochen und sich ein Tutorial für den richtigen Umgang mit Augenerkrankungen ansehen. 😂 Und wenn Theo und Nicky dann obligatorisch ihre Traurigkeit beteuern, weil sie nicht so viel beitragen konnten, würde Happy mit:“ Ach, alles gut. Das habe ich gern gemacht.“ antworten.😂 Abends würde Happy dann im Bett liegen und sich Gedanken machen, ob er Theo vielleicht mit der Hühnersuppe zu nahe getreten ist. „Hoffentlich denkt er nicht, ich wollte mich über ihn lustig machen, weil er einen Hühnerkörper hat. 🐥Das war ja nur fürsorglich gemeint. Hoffentlich ist er nicht verletzt und hasst mich jetzt.“ 😶 Na gut, irgendwie bin ich mir jetzt etwas unsicher, ob ich von Happy oder mir geschrieben habe.😂🤷🏼‍♀️ werbung Halsbänder und Leinen von @isartau ❤🌈

The accuracy was measured by Arizona State University researchers. They gathered DNA from over 900 dogs and compared the results.

“The level of genetic diversity in the shelter dogs exceeded our expectations,” the study’s lead author Lisa Gunter said. “We found 125 distinct breeds.”

While the shelters commonly reported they had around 25% of purebred dogs, the actual number was closer to 5%.

Have you ever wondered where some of the unique dog breeds come from? Well, webcomic artist Ben Hed gave some thought to this question and created a series of delightful illustrations that offer some hilarious answers.

Ben Hed is the creator of Pet Foolery, an inspiring Instagram page with more than 1.7 million followers.

“I just thought it was funny how some dogs look so similar to wolves and some… don’t… at all, even though they are all supposedly related,” Hed shared with Bored Panda.

Even though he creates detailed illustrations featuring many different dog breeds, Hed claims he has no favorites.

“I haven’t spent much time with any of these breeds, and as far as looks go, they’re all interesting in their own way.”

Take a look at some funny comics.

Dogs are man’s best friends, you’ve heard that already. There are plenty of dog breeds out there, that can make a perfect companion – some are known for their kindness or cleverness, others for their stubbornness. But do you know what are the most popular dog breeds in the world? Most dog lovers are crazy about these pooches, so let’s meet them.

Beagle

With its adorable puppy-dog eyes and floppy ears, it’s no wonder that Beagle is one of the most popular dogs out there. They can be stubborn sometimes and are often trained as scenthounds because of their powerful noses.

Poodle

Poodles are miniature dogs with beautiful fur and probably the most elegant dogs you’ll ever find. They are supposedly very intelligent and friendly, as well.

Golden retriever

Is there a more adorable dog that a Golden retriever? There isn’t, for sure! Golden retrievers are large and incredibly kind dogs, very loyal to their owners.

German Shepherd

German Shepherds are probably popular because they can be trained to do anything. This is why they assist as police dogs, therapy dogs, search and rescue dogs.

Labrador Retriever

If you’ve met a Labrador Retriever, you probably already know why he’s at the top of our list. Labradors are amazingly friendly and loyal and they’re perfects for families with kids. This breed may be famous because they’ve been featured in books and movies like *Old Yeller* and *Marley & Me*.
