How the types work
Dog personality is more than one label.
Pawsanality first calculates seven continuous trait scores from applicable answers. It then compares the available score pattern with eight versioned prototypes to find the closest interpretation and the secondary streak underneath it.
You can inspect the full scoring methodology and literature review, or return to the dog personality quiz guide before starting.
Every dog sits somewhere between all eight. The quiz finds the nearest pattern, plus the secondary streak running underneath it.
