Abstract
It is commonly believed that a dog’s breed predicts its behaviour. A 2019 paper seemed to confirm this, but had some serious limitations. An extensive new study shows that, in fact, breed is not a good predictor of behaviour at the individual level, and has only a weak influence on average characteristics.
