DOG BREEDS

Do you want to know why your Pekingese acts like royalty? Or if a Saluki will get along with Hubert, the family Guinea pig? Or why your Mexican hairless (or Xoloitzcuintle) is always stealing carrots from your garden? You can find answers to these and many other breed-related questions right
here. Read about your breed's history to learn about its origin, historic uses for working breeds, and other interesting facts. The 'appearance' and 'maintenance' descriptions will help you decide which dog will make the perfect companion pet for your family. In addition, you can learn about your dog's personality and breed-related habits, such as which breeds snore, which ones are yappers, and which is the best guard dog.

5 Star Dog has a complete guide for dog owners, dog lovers, and those considering adding a canine member to their family. Also available is our breed selector to help you in choosing the perfect pet for you.
