What this quiz checks
These questions focus on everyday dog body language, reward-based training and basic welfare decisions. The explanations are designed to reinforce one important habit: interpret behaviour in context rather than relying on a single signal such as a wagging tail.
After finishing, use the source links below and our dog body-language guide to explore any answers you found difficult.

What “dog savvy” means here
Before you start, here is what this page is designed to add beyond the score:
- Understanding that training works best when expectations are clear and consistent.
- Recognising common stress or discomfort signals instead of forcing interaction.
- Building routines that include exercise, rest, enrichment and appropriate veterinary care.
No short quiz can measure everything involved in responsible dog care. This one focuses on everyday choices that can improve communication and reduce avoidable stress.
