	How is there no JRT? I couldn't spell chihuahua

	AeroE:	Oct 28th, 2008 at 04:56 GMT	16 points
	I missed a lot because I couldn't spell them.

	disappointed there were no cocker spaniels or springer spaniels, those are the only kinds of dogs i've had.

	They could have made this a very long quiz - there are thousands of different breeds...I was surprised at what was left off this quiz. Still, it was a fun one. I agree about the Springer spaniel. The best dog I ever had was a springer spaniel and chocolate lab mix.

Oh dear, I came up with some very colourful alternatives trying to spell "Shih Tzu"! Fun quiz, despite my horrendous spelling!

	"Labrador" should be accepted for "labrador retriever".

	montecarlo:	Oct 28th, 2008 at 11:52 GMT	8 points
	"black lab" worked for me. sad to see my english setter and english springer spaniel didnt make the cut, nor my aunts cute old scottie.

	We are greatly offended that the Great Pyrenees isn't part of this quiz.

	* Dogs are not to scale. Hilarious. Yes there are many breeds missing.

	radiosilence:	Oct 28th, 2008 at 15:40 GMT	8 points
	Considering I've never owned a dog, I did fairly well. Growing up, I had neighbors with a Doberman, a Golden Retriever, and a German Shepherd. The Doberman needed a high fence. And if one dog barked at something, they all started barking in response.

	Will there be a whole set of animal quizzes to come? There could be breeds of cats and cows, and then species of various different things. Snakes, wild cats, wild dogs, apes and monkeys, bears, weasels, birds of prey, it's really endless!

	Adam:	Oct 28th, 2008 at 15:48 GMT	1 point
	Ugh, my spelling is atrocious. Thank goodness they accepted Chiwawa and Hot Dog =D. Also, I think I guessed every kind of terrier except the two in the quiz...

	http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dog_breeds There are way to many to be comprehensive, so I realize this is a compromise list. Some notable ones missing though: weimaraner, airedale terrier, afghan hound, basset hound, bichon frise, mastiff, collie, sheltie (shetland sheepdog), great pyrenees, norwich terrier (best in show anyone?), saluki, schipperke, schnauzer, whippet, yorkshire terrier. I couldn't find the complete 2007 list, but here's the AKC's 2005 list for most popular breeds up to like 30. http://www.petplace.com/dogs/top-dog-breeds-of-2005/page2.aspx

	Excellent quiz. I understand not all breeds are shown, that can be fixed by having future quizzes with ther breeds. Don't jump on them, guys, because they don't put your dog in it. Give them time, and I'm sure there will be other moments to get what you wish for.

	When I see a Pomeranian, I think of Walter Sobchak. "Oh, that's Cynthia's dog. I think it's a Pomeranian. I can't leave him home alone or he eats the furniture. I'm watching him while Cynthia and Marty Ackerman are in Hawaii."

	I only got 12. Shame is that I once owned a Poodle and missed that one.

	If you were going to try and do a more comprehensive quiz, you'd probably want to break them down and have a separate quiz for each group (Working, Herding, etc.). Actually that might be a fun little quiz on its own: Name the 7 AKC groups and/or the 7 Kennel Club (UK) groups.

	God loves a terrier!

	I like how most comments here are complaining about missing breeds. I think this was a great quiz mainly because you included St. Bernards which is what I own!

	I am glad the noble bloodhound got some love!

	Maybe in your brain; it's spelled 'dachshund'

	ElDavo:	Oct 29th, 2008 at 01:11 GMT	3 points
	12/36. Knowing I've never owned a dog, I can't be ashamed of that.

	Fawkes:	Oct 29th, 2008 at 06:04 GMT	0 points
	Pictures weren't actually that helpful. I mostly just guessed breeds and hoped they were there. The American Eskimo and the Samoyed look the same.

	Liv:	Oct 29th, 2008 at 06:34 GMT	3 points
	What?? No corgi x retriever x highland terrier x tibetan terrier?? Thats my dog ^^ it took me three goes at this quiz to spell dachshnd coz I couldn't spell wiener either :(

	peanut:	Oct 30th, 2008 at 10:41 GMT	7 points
	I suppose showing dogs for almost thirty years has its benefits. I got them all right and in order. No complaints from me and none of the breeds I've ever owned were up there, but that's okay.

	SillyStokey92:	Nov 27th, 2008 at 23:04 GMT	2 points
	Got 35/36. Good, since I am a dog fanatic. Missed Australian Terrier, kept trying Norfolk and Norwich Terrier. Also, I couldn't spell Dachshund so I tried "wiener dog" was it worked. Was surprised that "Butterfly" worked for Papillon. Good quiz. Wish they did one of all the categories in a dog show, Working, Sporting, ect.
