Frequently asked questions

Do the indicators describe every pet of the breed?

No. They are general breed guidance; an individual animal’s temperament, health and needs may differ.

Can I choose a breed using one score?

It is better to read the indicators together and consider the household’s routine, experience, environment and practical needs.
