There are over a hundred registered breeds of dogs. Recognizing
the type of dog is basically associated with its breed. A
purebred animal belongs to a documented and acknowledged group
of unmixed lineage. Before a breed of dog is recognized, it must
be proved that mating two adult dogs of the same type would have
passed on their exact characteristics, both appearance and
behavior, to their offspring.
If you are thinking of adopting or buying a pet dog for
yourself, it is important to know which type of dog you want.

black or brown furs. Labrador are versatile dogs that have a
