How to use your dog breed results

Treat the top matches as a shortlist, not a final verdict. The fastest way to learn is to open the top 2–3 breed pages and compare structure (ears, muzzle length, body outline) and daily-care needs.

  • Use confidence scores as guidance; close scores often mean the photo is ambiguous or the dog is a mix.
  • Upload 2–3 photos from different angles (side profile + full body + head/shoulders) for a better shortlist.
  • Validate the shortlist by comparing “look-alike” breeds side by side in the breed directory.
  • If you need more definitive ancestry information, compare photo ID with a dog DNA test.
