“We wanted a dog that could handle two kids under five and a small yard. DoggyQ pointed us to a Beagle — six months in, he is the most patient dog we have ever had.”

“I was set on a Husky until the quiz showed me what 2+ hours of daily exercise really means with my schedule. Ended up with a Whippet and it was exactly right.”
