Adult Dogs & Their Puppy Counterparts

Pembroke Welsh Corgi

The Pembroke Welsh Corgi is a smart, alert, and affectionate dog. Sturdy, intelligent, and fun loving, this low-slung breed is athletic and loves having a job to do. They are bold, friendly, and love their families.

St. Bernard

The outgoing, patient, and friendly St. Bernard is known as a “nanny dog” due to its reputation for being great with kids. This large, laidback breed is lower on the energy scale—the AKC notes that the mature Saint will be content with long walks and a romp on the lawn.

Samoyed

Gentle, adaptable, and friendly, the Samoyed is the most nearly akin to the primitive dog of all the modern breeds; no admixture of wolf or dog runs in the Samoyed strain. This intelligent, loyal, charming breed enjoys being with their families.

Great Dane

The friendly, patient, and dependable Great Dane combines dignity, strength, and elegance with great size and power. This regal, spirited, courageous dog has a laidback personality that belies his majestic appearance. Contrary to what many people think, Great Danes do not need a lot of exercise.

Dandie Dinmont Terrier

The Dandie Dinmont Terrier is an independent, proud, and smart breed. The Dandie is affectionate toward his family but bold and tenacious in the field. Of small size and medium energy (not a frantic terrier), this dog’s hallmark is a low-slung body, silken pouf topknot, and large round eyes with a soft expression.
