Dog breed quiz questions, answered
Everything dog lovers ask us about the breed quizzes and the awards you can collect.
Is the dog breed quiz free to play?
Yes — both the Guess the Breed game and every individual breed quiz on RateMyDog are completely free. There's no sign-up wall, no timer and no limit on how many times you play.
Do I need an account to take a breed quiz?
No. You can play every quiz as a guest and see your score straight away. Log in if you want your breed awards saved to a collection, your best streaks tracked and your name on the leaderboard.
How many dog breeds can I be quizzed on?
Every breed in our encyclopedia has its own quiz, covering breed group, country of origin, size, coat, exercise needs and typical lifespan. The Guess the Breed game mixes all of them together, while the breed directory lets you pick one breed and focus on it.
How do the breed quiz awards work?
Finish a breed's quiz and you claim that breed's medal. Score every question correctly for gold, 80% or more for silver, and any completed round earns bronze. Each breed has its own medal, so there is a fresh one to collect with every quiz you play.
How long does a breed quiz take?
A single breed quiz is six questions and takes well under a minute, which makes it an easy break-time game or a family activity. The Guess the Breed game runs to ten questions if you want a longer round.
Want to swot up before your next round? Browse the breed encyclopedia, compare breeds side by side in the breed directory and then see where your score lands on the leaderboard. If you'd rather read than guess, our guide to how the breed quizzes work walks through every question type and how the medals are awarded.
