Bulldog:
You’re tough. You wear an invisible sign on your chest - “don’t mess with me.”

Chihuahua:
Being a nervous wreck, you are as loquacious as your pet. Your talkativeness has gone to such an extent, you at times will be seen after your companion was listening to you, going off and speaking to yourself.

Cocker Spaniel:

St. Be
ard:
This dog is known to have faced the most difficult situations and relentlessly would pursue to liberate the needy. It is your need to be in the authority position and to assist the underdog.

Stray Dog:
With the understanding that if you do not take these animals home they may be destroyed, in addition to showing affability, you have genuine pity for those not doing as well as you. Should your home have turned into a pound, because of the endless amount of pity, this may also reflect one not knowing where to draw the line, between assisting and being taken advantage of.
