There is a common belief that dogs are similar in character to their owners.
Research by scientists confirms this. According to a study conducted by the English Kennel Club involving 1,500 dog owners, people subconsciously choose dog breeds with a character that matches their own.
We tell you what a dog's breed says about its owner's character.
German shepherd
A very brave, disciplined and responsive breed.
Shepherd dog owners are always ready to help people in trouble.
Dachshund
The character of dachshunds often leaves much to be desired, but scientists characterize their owners as reliable people who can always be relied upon.
Labrador
The main character traits are friendliness and sociability.
Labradors are chosen by sociable people who like to be the life of the party.
Cocker
According to the study, spaniels are preferred by inquisitive, creative people who strive to be helpful.
Staffordshire Bull Terrier
Many people are afraid of dogs of this breed, considering them aggressive and evil.
But with proper training, a Stafford can become a very kind and affectionate dog. In Great Britain, Staffords are called nanny dogs because they are very patient with children.
Staffordshire Terrier owners, like their pets, are very kind people who can be trusted.
