52 profiles, 51 recognized breeds
Our purebred profiles represent 51 of the 205 breeds recognized by the AKC in January 2026: 24.9%. Standard and Miniature Poodles are separate care profiles but one recognized breed in this count. This is an AKC benchmark, not a claim about every breed recognized worldwide.
20 named-cross guides, plus unknown ancestry
Named crosses connect to both parent backgrounds. There is no finite worldwide list of all mixed-breed combinations, and nicknames are not a registry of standardized breeds. We separately provide guidance for mixed dogs whose ancestry is unknown.
What coverage does and does not mean
A profile means a visitor can read sourced care context and navigate related backgrounds. It does not mean that a suitable individual dog is available locally. The quiz uses breed tendencies and transparent preferences; mixed backgrounds need individual assessment.
Where the catalogue can grow
Many recognized breeds are still missing. Future expansion should add equally useful source-backed profiles, improve regional registration data and test the experience with real users. A larger count alone is not proof of a better match.
