Are you loyal and lovable? Or do you tend to be more aloof and wary? Do you need constant stimulation or are you happy just hanging out on the couch?

If you were a dog, which breed would you be?

Take our quick little quiz to find out which dog breed you are the most like.

We’re gonna get analog here for a minute: Take out a paper and pen to keep track of your answers, and in the end we’ll help you tally them up. Remember when you would read magazines as a teenager and they would have those personality quizzes and you had to actually write down the answers? This is sort of like that. (Yes, I remember actual print magazines.)

A, B, B, B, D: You’re a Bulldog!

You love to just hang out. You don’t need to live in a fancy house — an apartment in the city is just perfect for you. A walk around the block satisfies your need for exercise, but you’d much rather chill out on the couch.
