Dog Breeds

Dog breeds refer to specific groups of domestic dogs that have been selectively bred for particular traits, characteristics, and functions. Each breed has a standardized set of physical and behavioral traits, including size, coat type, temperament, and energy levels, which distinguish them from other breeds. The classification of dog breeds can be based on various factors, including their historical role (such as herding, hunting, or companionship), physical appearance, and genetic lineage. Examples of recognized dog breeds include Labrador Retriever, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, and Bulldog. Dog breed standards are often maintained by kennel clubs and breed organizations, which outline the ideal characteristics of each breed.
