www.barkandwhiskers.com/2024-02-19-does-dogs-breed-affect-their-behaviorStory at-a-glance A recent study reveals the surprising result that a dog’s breed is actually a poor predictor of behavior While behavioral tendencies are obvious in breed groups (e.g., prey drive in hounds, and retrieving in retrievers), it is far from a guarantee that individual dogs within a breed group will display those behaviors Each dog’s behavior is a combination of nature and nurture; behavioral influences include early and ongoing (lifelong) socialization, the level of daily exercise, training, diet, and other factors My notes: Similar to the Don't judge a book by its cover. There's more to a creature than the breed. The breed shapes who they are but other factors come into play as well.

I've seen breeds not act like their breed. Depends on how they were raised. Their personality.
