The Tailster Guide to Dogs

Owning a dog is great fun and immensely rewarding. But, dogs have complex needs and each dog is unique.

In this section you will find out about the different breeds and Crossbreeds, how to train them, and look after them

Dog Breeds

Dog breeds vary in size and shape from the tiniest teacup Chihuahua to the massive St Bernards and Great Danes.

Most dogs were bred for particular behaviours, such as hunting or herding.

Crossbreeds & Designer Dogs

A crossbred dog is a hybrid of two breeds of dog. This can lead to some very interesting mixed-breeds.

Once they were considered second class citizens to pure breeds, many have become incredibly popular in their own right.
