Should have taken these dogs to the vet, I feel like this chart would look a lot different temperament wise. Working in the field, I’m very confused how some of these breeds scored so well and others so poorly.
Yeah, as someone who’s been around dogs for decades, this chart doesn’t make sense. I’d like to know the methodology used, and with how many dogs of each breed.
Seriously. Is it just me, or is it a little racist (breedist?) to lump dogs into individual categories based solely on breed? They’re all unique individuals with their own personalities. Any dog can be a good boy if raised properly.
They are specifically breeded for certain traits, it’s fair to lump them into breeds when looking at behaviour and temperament since those are traits that can obviously be bred.
Yeah, I almost wonder for a lot of these if they were getting dogs from the same genetic line. I’ve seen some breeders make dogs with poor temperaments just becuase of the breeding stock they’ve been using.
Like, I do agree bearded collies can have poor temperaments, but so bad that they’re that far removed from all other dogs? Strong disagree.

I mean, the methodology is pretty well outlined on the graphic lol.
Holy shit, I’m an idiot 😂

Bruh, do you understand what a breed is?

It’s just you.
Ok
