Ever done one of those dog quizzes on BuzzFeed and found yourself unsatisfied by the results? Well, now you can really figure out your spirit dog with this questionnaire. All you have to do is answer all of the questions and within a few days I can determine your pup personality! I am a bit of a dog breed buff, so I thought this would be really fun to do. Here is the questionnaire:

1. How would you describe yourself and how would others describe you?

2. What are traits that you like and dislike about yourself?

3. What are traits that you like and dislike about other people?

4. How do your inner emotions/thoughts differentiate from what you project to others?

5. Do you prefer to be alone or with a group?

6. Do you have a strong work ethic or motivation to do something?

7. Do you judge immediately or just observe your surrounding first?

8. When you go somewhere new, what do you look for/what stands out?

9. Where do you find yourself focused/What are you focused on most of the time?

10. If you could have any career, what would it be and why?

11. What do you like to do in your spare time/What are your hobbies?

12. What are your pet peeves?

13. Describe your dream home? Where would you want to live? What kind of climate or scenery? What would your house be like? What kind of lifestyle would you live (luxurious, simple, etc.)? How would you decorate your house? What things would you do in that area?

14. Describe an ideal vacation away from home?

15. Are you more laid back or obedient (or something else)?

16. What is your favorite color and why?

18. What do you hope to happen in your future/the world's future?

19. Do you look at the big picture or the nitty gritty?

20. Do you focus more on the logical or emotional side of something?

21. Do you enjoy arguing/debating?

22. Are you more warm hearted or cool headed?

23. Do you think things through or jump into things?

24. Are you protective of yourself/your property/others?

25. What traits do you have that you wish you could change?

26. What is your biggest fear/worry?

27. Do you consider yourself more introverted or extroverted?

28. What was your past like and how do you look back on it?

29. Choose an image or photograph that you like and upload it. Why do you like this image/photo? Be specific.

30. What dog breed do you associate with yourself and why?

Enjoy!

[MENTION=35814]Introspector[/MENTION] OK so I don't believe in MBTI but you've got me 100% with dog breed typology, hahaha. :wubbie:

Here is my questionnaire! Thank you!

1. How would you describe yourself and how would others describe you?
I would describe myself as quiet, timid, and kind of inept but with a morbid streak. Others describe me as “fun, resourceful, supportive, and interesting” (that’s from one of my latest birthday cards, haha) … but with a morbid streak.

2. What are traits that you like and dislike about yourself?
I like that I’m intelligent (in a book-smart, good-at-school kind of way). I pick up and process new information quickly. I also like my sense of humor. I dislike my timidity, low self-confidence, tendency toward black-and-white thinking, and sporadic energy levels and drive.

3. What are traits that you like and dislike about other people?
I like intelligence, thoughtfulness, kindness and depth of thought and character. I dislike dishonesty, cruelty, and callousness

4. How do your inner emotions/thoughts differentiate from what you project to others?
I appear more put together and successful than I feel on the inside but in general, I am pretty emotionally transparent.

5. Do you prefer to be alone or with a group?
Depends on my mood. I need both to feel happy and well, maybe more alone time than group time though in a 2:1 ratio. Also, the groups have to be relatively small and only people I know and like.

6. Do you have a strong work ethic or motivation to do something?
I have a strong work ethic when my interest is captivated by something. Under those circumstances, I’m capable of intense bursts of energy. I need to vegetate for long periods after I’m done though and periods of slackness predominate.

7. Do you judge immediately or just observe your surrounding first?
I judge first but most of my judgments are neutral enough to be just observations, I guess, if that makes sense.

8. When you go somewhere new, what do you look for/what stands out?
I need to orient myself so as not to feel confused and lost, so I look for possible landmarks. Other than that, general beauty/aesthetic vibe I guess.

9. Where do you find yourself focused/What are you focused on most of the time?
A quest for something to take me out of my own head; merging with something greater than myself (relationships with others, ideas and information, God, etc.)
10. If you could have any career, what would it be and why?
I would really like to get a job in the field I’m training in and be a history professor in a research-oriented university, where I get to work on my own academic interests and write but also teach. In a fantasy world I’d like to do the same thing but with MAGIC, i.e, Hogwarts professor or something, idk, haha.

11. What do you like to do in your spare time/What are your hobbies?
I like to cook, read (mostly fiction), go on information hunts on the internet, crochet, hike, and play board games.

12. What are your pet peeves?
People who make me run late because I’m waiting on them, people who cut in line

13. Describe your dream home? Where would you want to live? What kind of climate or scenery? What would your house be like? What kind of lifestyle would you live (luxurious, simple, etc.)? How would you decorate your house? What things would you do in that area?

Generally simple in beautiful natural surroundings, lots of trees/vicinity to woods would be great. Simply even sparsely furnished but plenty of room to entertain guests if need be. I would like to live somewhere with seasons.

14. Describe an ideal vacation away from home?
Going someplace unfamiliar with a close companion and seeing EVERYTHING there is to offer … I should be tired in a good way after a vacation, physically tired but mentally recharged, I think. I like both physical kinds of vacations (like hiking/camping) and cultural vacations (going somewhere with lots of history and visiting all the sights)

15. Are you more laid back or obedient (or something else)?
More laid back. I would characterize myself as docile, not openly disobedient, but I actually don’t react very well to orders or being told what to do … I would be a bad pupper :(

16. What is your favorite color and why?
Blue. It’s the color of water and of the sky! It runs the gamut from electrically vibrant to incredibly soothing! I like the way I look in most shades of it!

18. What do you hope to happen in your future/the world's future?
In my future, I want to live an intellectually, emotionally and spiritually fulfilled life and to share that with a mate who shares those intellectual, emotional and spiritual inclinations. I know that is vague but that’s about as specific a picture I have of happiness in general. For the world, I hope humanity manages to avoid the catastrophic climate change/nuclear warfare bullets in the next century or so.

19. Do you look at the big picture or the nitty gritty?
More big picture than nitty gritty.

20. Do you focus more on the logical or emotional side of something?
Emotional

21. Do you enjoy arguing/debating?
I don’t enjoy it but I can’t walk away once I start until I hammer my point home with my opponents.

22. Are you more warm hearted or cool headed?
I’m low-key warm hearted.

23. Do you think things through or jump into things?
Somewhere in-between, perhaps leaning a little bit more towards impulsiveness.

24. Are you protective of yourself/your property/others?
Yes, very much so.

25. What traits do you have that you wish you could change?
I wish I were nicer and had more faith in myself

26. What is your biggest fear/worry?
To die alone and unloved!

27. Do you consider yourself more introverted or extroverted?
Introverted

28. What was your past like and how do you look back on it?
I prefer not to dwell on it. Whenever I do, I tend to think more about moments of unhappiness than anything else, even though I’ve had a pretty tranquil, relatively good and sheltered life.

29. Choose an image or photograph that you like and upload it. Why do you like this image/photo? Be specific.

e9b.gif


I had this picture as my avatar for a long time because of how much I loved it. I love the colors which are dusky and vibrant at the same time. I love the flicker and movement of the flames … I can feel the warmth just looking at this picture. I love the contrast provided by the slow, barely perceptible ripples in the water. This scene is dark and bright in the same ways I am, I think, so it speaks to me.

30. What dog breed do you associate with yourself and why?
I don’t know much about dog breeds so I can’t really say. I LOVE dogs but if I were an animal I think I’d probably be some sort of cat (which is a pity because I like dogs a lot better, but there it is, haha)

Thank you once again!!!

Your Pup Personality is...
ITALIAN GREYHOUND

2-onelegup.jpg

Credit for Picture - Dogtime

The Italian Greyhound (IG), although just a miniature version of the standard Greyhound, doesn't have much in common with its bigger relative besides its appearance. IGs are notoriously timid, aloof, and stubborn, but are also very loyal and goofy pets that love to cuddle up on the couch for a nice day. Like Greyhounds and Whippets, IGs can have big spurts of energy followed by complete laziness for the rest of the day. IGs are notoriously sensitive and require care and positive reinforcement in order to improve temperament. IGs, although shy and quiet, are also in the moment dogs and may break their legs from jumping from one place to another. A good IG is a relaxed but fun dog with a calm demeanor and a loyal attitude.

Is this a good description? Feel free to reply if there are any problems. I hope you enjoyed this Pup Personality assessment!

The dog I had the most in common with was an ex's dad's Australian shepherd who hadn't been socialized properly and was kinda neurotic and disobedient around people but couldn't get enough of them when he got to know and like them. I don't know the breed in general but I fucking loved that dog. :heart:

The general Aussie temperament is loyal and sweet but very dominating like your average shepherd, so if I just base this around the general personality of the breed, I think Italian Greyhound is a much better fit.

I'm reading Madame Bovary right now and she's crying and pitching a fit because she lost her Italian Greyhound while moving from one town to another. :cry:

Neat!

1. How would you describe yourself and how would others describe you?

Artistic, individualistic, shy, introverted, quirky.

Others see me fairly similarly, I'd think. Maybe a bit of a hippie/hipster too.

2. What are traits that you like and dislike about yourself?

Likes: flexibility, understanding from different angles, unique tastes, talents, imagination

Dislikes: I can be lazy and too impractical.

3. What are traits that you like and dislike about other people?

Plenty. For starters, some people can't think outside the box and are too surface level. Some are too rigid and take life WAY too seriously. They need to take a chill pill and sit in a corner to meditate, a.k.a. calming tf down. Some are followers and can't think for themselves. Some are just plain evil. Yada yada...

4. How do your inner emotions/thoughts differentiate from what you project to others?

I think sometimes people get this idea that I'm more outgoing and confident than usual. That I'm super intense when I'm not. That I appear aloof and unaware all the time.

5. Do you prefer to be alone or with a group?

ALONE.

6. Do you have a strong work ethic or motivation to do something?

Depends. Some days I can't get anything done, while other days I spend way too much time working to where I forget to eat and sleep.

7. Do you judge immediately or just observe your surrounding first?

Both?

8. When you go somewhere new, what do you look for/what stands out?

If it's something I vibe with and it's not too crowded. That's all that matters.

9. Where do you find yourself focused/What are you focused on most of the time?

Painting. Listening to and discovering new music. Yoga. Films. Books. Spirituality. Where life will take me. Where I'll be in years to come. My inner, alternative world.

10. If you could have any career, what would it be and why?

Artist. It's what I'm best at (the only thing) and what I enjoy doing the most. I'm already getting there and have made paintings for other people.

11. What do you like to do in your spare time/What are your hobbies?

Painting, listening to music, watching obscure films, yoga, reading, learning French, DIY stuff.

12. What are your pet peeves?

Not doing what I want and people irritating me for whatever reason.

13. Describe your dream home? Where would you want to live? What kind of climate or scenery? What would your house be like? What kind of lifestyle would you live (luxurious, simple, etc.)? How would you decorate your house? What things would you do in that area?

An eclectic and swanky Victorian house set in San Francisco while overlooking the Bay or located right in the middle of the city. The weather therefore would most often be gray and cold (for Cali standards, at least). It would be a fancy French Baroque style mixed with a bohemian, 1960s/70s retro vibe, a bit of a Roaring 20s flare, and just a little gothic/witchy touch. I'd live a bohemian, 'yuppie' lifestyle. A mix of luxurious and simple. Might even get out of my introverted bubble and invite random people to stay often. I'd have a studio nearby to paint in, hang out with friends, and do a bunch of other hippie dippie shit.

14. Describe an ideal vacation away from home?

Travel all over Europe and have the time of my life. I don't plan in detail how it all would go, just as long as the outcome is positive and knowing it was worth it in the end.

15. Are you more laid back or obedient (or something else)?

Laid-back. I hate being obedient.

16. What is your favorite color and why?

Reds, blacks, purples, and magenta. I generally like warmer, romantic colors because they represent passion and liveliness. I hate anything pastel and light.

18. What do you hope to happen in your future/the world's future?

Mine: I'd like to be living my dream as an artist. Live a bohemian lifestyle and meet someone very special to me. Continue to grow and develop as a human being. Maintain a glass half full mentality and not lose focus. Feel satisfied with where I'm at so far and perhaps look forward to growing old.

World: We all become united and turn vegan. Kumbaya.

19. Do you look at the big picture or the nitty gritty?

Both? Why does it always have to be one or the other? I like it all, damn it.

20. Do you focus more on the logical or emotional side of something?

Emotional, as much as I hate to admit. I'm an e4, after all.

21. Do you enjoy arguing/debating?

NO.

22. Are you more warm hearted or cool headed?

A bit of both. I probably lean a little more warm hearted, but I also have a detached side too.

23. Do you think things through or jump into things?

Think things through. Usually.

24. Are you protective of yourself/your property/others?

Myself and my property. I like my space without intruders.

25. What traits do you have that you wish you could change?

I wish I wasn't so shy and taciturn at times. Less insecure. A little more daring in certain aspects. Maybe a little less pretentious. Nah.

26. What is your biggest fear/worry?

I end up failing what I set out to do in life. Not measuring up to being a worthwhile human being.

27. Do you consider yourself more introverted or extroverted?

100% introverted.

28. What was your past like and how do you look back on it?

Grainy and blurry, how I'd like to keep it. Usually though, I get pretty sentimental about it and often end up stuck in a rut if I think about it all the time. I also have a tendency to romaticize or conjure up alternatives to what could have happened. But now I try to focus my mind into the future, and that keeps me from falling backwards.

29. Choose an image or photograph that you like and upload it. Why do you like this image/photo? Be specific.

CJrvfPkUEAEsXVH.jpg


Something about this is very appealing to me in a very comfy, carbohydrate way. Surreal and chaotic. Disturbing, yet whimsical. I feel at home.

30. What dog breed do you associate with yourself and why?

Poodles. It's the hair.

AFGHAN HOUND

Afghan-Hound-Pictures.jpg

Credit for Picture - 101DogBreeds.com

Just looking at this regal sighthound tells you just about all you need to know. Dating thousands of years from Afghanistan, the Afghan Hound eventually came to England in the 1920s and soared in popularity. These dogs aren't very social at all, as they may not even acknowledge the presence of guests. Contrary to many other hounds, the Afghan Hound is very difficult to train, as their independent mindset paired with their lack of motivation causes them to be uninterested in training. While these dogs do need daily exercise, they prefer the indoors and like living a pampered lifestyle. These dogs take a while to get used to someone, but when they do, they are loyal to the end.

I hope this description was accurate!

CHOW CHOW

Credit for Picture - Pets4Homes

While the Chow Chow may just look like a massive teddy bear, their temperament could not be more opposite. These all-purpose dogs from China are very protective of what is theirs, including their people and property. Because of their protective streak, this breed has one of the highest rates of bites. However, these dogs are really just misunderstood, and beneath their furry cloak is a heart of gold. These dogs are very independent and stubborn, but also very loyal and will bark a lot when they see an incoming stranger in hopes of defending their owners. While not actively social, these dogs make great company and stand by who they love.

I hope this was accurate!

1. How would you describe yourself and how would others describe you?

Myself: Shy, Caring, Loyal. Others: Compassionate, Modest, Quiet, Accepting, Intense, Courageous, Loyal, Playful.

2. What are traits that you like and dislike about yourself?

I like that I care deeply about people and things, and that I prefer to be resilient rather than let things knock me down. I dont like how indecisive I am, or how much I doubt myself.

3. What are traits that you like and dislike about other people?

I like considerate people, kindhearted people, honesty, dependability. I dont like manipulative people, overly controlling people, cruelty of any kind, and hypocrisy.

4. How do your inner emotions/thoughts differentiate from what you project to others?

What you see is what you get for the most part, I try to be authentic/genuine. But I like to say Im a private open book. If you dont ask, I dont tell. I'm also not very articulate, so my inner emotions/thoughts aren't always conveyed very well. I dont always express my needs well enough, I might seem distant at times but I actually love affection, and am very very affectionate myself. If I like a specific person, I like being around them often.

5. Do you prefer to be alone or with a group?

Aloneee. Or with like one close friend/animal.

6. Do you have a strong work ethic or motivation to do something?

I highly value hard work, even when it's something I dont want to do I push myself if it needs to be done. But I'm more motivated/enthusiastic when I like what I'm doing.

7. Do you judge immediately or just observe your surrounding first?

Definitely observe.

8. When you go somewhere new, what do you look for/what stands out?

As a nature lover, anything where nature is involved stands out. I like quiet/peaceful places, with not a lot of crowds. I love seeing lots of trees.

9. Where do you find yourself focused/What are you focused on most of the time?

I'm insatiably curious about human nature, so I tend to be very focused with anything relating to that. Doing anything creative/artsy, discussing deep topics, and learning something new/interesting also draws my attention.

10. If you could have any career, what would it be and why?

I have many in mind but I'll say interior decorator. I'm a massive fan of personalizing things, always have been. I pretty much drew, wrote, or stuck stickers on anything that was mine growing up. And I just love the idea of making a space your own, expressing yourself in literally every way possible, even down to the place you live in. It's wonderful to me.

11. What do you like to do in your spare time/What are your hobbies?

Read, write, play piano, on the very rare occasion try and bake something lol.

12. What are your pet peeves?

I know I have some but I cant think of any.. I guess fake people?

13. Describe your dream home? Where would you want to live? What kind of climate or scenery? What would your house be like? What kind of lifestyle would you live (luxurious, simple, etc.)? How would you decorate your house? What things would you do in that area?

My dream home would be average size, two stories at least. Decorated in a sort of boho/cosy/eclectic style probably. Plants, candles, fairy lights, pictures on the walls, lots of natural light, bay window, reading nook, dark wood floors, comfy stylish furniture. I'd like to live somewhere rural, with all 4 seasons but a colder climate (the heat makes me weak). My lifestyle would be pretty simple I'm not super into luxury. I would take walks, have picnics, garden, spend lots of time outside just reading/writing/daydreaming/exploring. When I visit the city Id go to the bookstore, museum, observatory, just whatever is there and soak up the culture for a bit. I could go on but I'll stop now before I sound like HGTV :')

14. Describe an ideal vacation away from home?

Relaxing in a seaside cottage in New England. Or backpacking through Europe.

15. Are you more laid back or obedient (or something else)?

Overall I'm laid back/easy going/obedient. Not because I have no back bone but because I genuinely am not bothered by that much. I can be quite upfront about what I want sometimes though lol.

16. What is your favorite color and why?

I have far too many, but robin's egg blue. It makes me think of being by the sea by a rocky beach with a lighthouse for some reason, and it calms me.

18. What do you hope to happen in your future/the world's future?

My future: freedom and love. The world's future: more authenticity in others and understanding/kindness.

19. Do you look at the big picture or the nitty gritty?

Big picture, occasionally I'm very particular.

20. Do you focus more on the logical or emotional side of something?

Emotional for sure, but I can still be rational.

21. Do you enjoy arguing/debating?

No, I like discussion though.

22. Are you more warm hearted or cool headed?

Warm hearted, my mind can be a bit chaotic at times.

23. Do you think things through or jump into things?

I'm pretty cautious/indecisive overall, I can occasionally be impulsive though.

24. Are you protective of yourself/your property/others?

Yes.

25. What traits do you have that you wish you could change?

I wish I could be more expressive with my inner thoughts/feelings, and be more decisive.

26. What is your biggest fear/worry?

Not achieving my dreams, only dreaming about them. And being unoriginal.

27. Do you consider yourself more introverted or extroverted?

Introverted for sure.

28. What was your past like and how do you look back on it?

My past was overall pleasant, and I look back on it fondly. Im a bit sentimental. Well, maybe more than a bit haha.

29. Choose an image or photograph that you like and upload it. Why do you like this image/photo? Be specific.



I chose it because I feel it represents emotion. I've always been a very emotional person and I think that while so much of it is internal, it also radiates.

30. What dog breed do you associate with yourself and why?

Not sure... but something fluffy and medium sized, simply because I like fluffy things and am medium sized lol.

Your Pup Personality is...
NOVA SCOTIA DUCK TOLLING RETRIEVER

file_22990_nova-scotia-duck-tolling-retriever.jpg

Credit for Picture - Dogtime

The smallest of the retrievers, the Toller's temperament is best described as that of a Golden and terrier combined. Originally bred to lure ducks onto the shore, the Toller has a sensitive and reserved attitude but compassionate and intimate behavior. Dreamy yet intense, the Toller loves to be doing something, whether going hunting or on a nice relaxing stroll, and they tend to get a little annoying when bored. Despite being very independent and quiet dogs, the Toller will engage a lot with whatever peaks their interest. These dogs can also make a great watchdogs due to their observant and alert behavior but reserved nature with strangers. All in all, the Toller is a deeply caring and playful companion like any good retriever.

I hope this was accurate!

1. How would you describe yourself and how would others describe you?
( Fair warning: the WORST typist)
-Tenacious
-Cool-headed
-Bold/Risk taker
-I do not take myself or life very seriously, probably not as much as I should
-Does not excel at verbal communication
-I've heard "Rough around the edges" a lot

2. What are traits that you like and dislike about yourself?

- Adaptable, problem solver
- Cool headed
- Objective ( comparative)

-Physical limitations
-Appearance
-Does not excel at verbal communication
- Think I am too expressive


3. What are traits that you like and dislike about other people?

-Dishonesty. Not like flat out lies, but people who are dishonest with themselves. People who make excuses for their behavior Like...when they watch a show for the service but INSIST it's because of the "story" and defend it to the death.
-People who do not take responsibility for their actions. Specifically when they say things like " I don't have a choice." When they have MANY choices but do not want to deal with the downside, or who think that every choice should give them only what they want with NO consequences. As I put it " Making a decision is a the greatest expression of free will, so relish in your choices, and their consequences."
-Those with victim complexes. As my grandmother once said about her son " Victims cannot be reasoned with."

4. How do your inner emotions/thoughts differentiate from what you project to others?

Unlike the more common complex of "quite on the outside, loud on the inside. I am louder on the outside than inside. ( Though people who know would laugh at the idea that I am "loud at all." ) It's learned behavior. People always misunderstand my stoicism for negativity so i have to play it up just a little.

5. Do you prefer to be alone or with a group?

Hard to say. I hate to be dramatic, but for accuracy sake I always feel alone, especially in a group.

6. Do you have a strong work ethic or motivation to do something?

Dangerously so. I relish in hard work. It isn't a good day unless I've nearly died from exhaustion.

7. Do you judge immediately or just observe your surrounding first?

I judge, and then I stop and observe. However, everyone who has gotten to know me says " You are judgemental AF...but I always follow your judgments becuase they are disturbingly accurate."

8. When you go somewhere new, what do you look for/what stands out?
Architecture/landscaping namely, whether it is gaudy and cluttered or minimalist and sparse.

9. Where do you find yourself focused/What are you focused on most of the time?
My surroundings, how I can make them more efficient. What can I rid of to optimize space and sanity.


10. If you could have any career, what would it be and why?

Marine biologist by day CIA field agent by night. I would say "Anthropologist" because I want to travel and it's my major but I have no delusions; it is not a career.
(Because I have a great love of marine life, the ocean, and it's importance to our own survival have since I was very little. I want to have an exciting life and risk death everyday-I know ' They don't really do that" hear me out; again, I love to travel and I want to be "in the know" of the real goings on in the world. And, I can't lie; I want power.

11. What do you like to do in your spare time/What are your hobbies?

Everything? This is difficult to answer because I have A LOT of energy and would LOVE to be constantly active but have too many physical limiations.
So these are what I settle for
-Camping, especially on the beach.
-Visiting museums ( I prefer history to art)
-Telling stories (that I've learned from studying different cultures) it really cheers up perturbed service workers.
-Of course, studying different cultures, practicing traditions ( Calligraphy, tea ceremony)
-Making bonsai pots, or w/e is commissioned in ceramic arts
-Drawing (I'm better with ceramic)
-Cooking for friends


12. What are your pet peeves?

- Nerds; people who have no concept if reality. I understand the need for escapism but when you start insulting and physically threatening other living human beings in defense of fantasy you’ve gone too far.
-People who react without thinking
- women's shoes and the lack of pockets in our clothing

13. Describe your dream home? Where would you want to live? What kind of climate or scenery? What would your house be like? What kind of lifestyle would you live (luxurious, simple, etc.)? How would you decorate your house? What things would you do in that area?
I've always wanted to live in desert ruins.
It'd be open with tall ceilings and a lot of open space. I prefer a large loft to a bedroom. I don't like doors.
An important thing is that my kitchen would mostly be outside ( I love to cook over fire) with a large and open art studio.

14. Describe an ideal vacation away from home?

I'm fine with anything as long as I am not home.

15. Are you more laid back or obedient (or something else)?

I do not like the law but I understand why they exist and I am often the one demanding everyone else follow them ( because not obeying rules is why we get even more rediculous rules. Often most this is misunderstood as being well, "Obedient.") My minor was in law because i figure that the best way to get around the law is to know it.

16. What is your favorite color and why?

Red. It's pretty.

18. What do you hope to happen in your future/the world's future?
As long as things do not get quantifiable worse, I'm fine with whatever.

19. Do you look at the big picture or the nitty gritty?

ALWAYS the big picture. The "nitty-gritty" and the people who focus on them exasperate me to no end.

20. Do you focus more on the logical or emotional side of something?

Logical. Absolutely. But I'm not a douche about it. I don't claim to "replace emotion with logic" nor do I think " Emotions are stupid." It is my personal experience that making decisions based on emotions never leads to any good. So, no matter how angry I get, I will always keep my temper and think about the best solution.

21. Do you enjoy arguing/debating?
God no.

22. Are you more warm hearted or cool headed?
Cool headed.

23. Do you think things through or jump into things?

Depends on the risk involved. Though I am quite observant. I can usually establish my surroundings and best course of action quickly enough that others might see it as "Jumping in"

24. Are you protective of yourself/your property/others?
Others, yeah. Myself or property, nope. Don't get me wrong, I am not some sort of martyr.
I just assume that most people are weaker than myself.
( I hear it is a common trait of my Enneagram)


25. What traits do you have that you wish you could change?

I am never satisfied, eternally bored.
I have yet to find another human being which i can truly relate to.

26. What is your biggest fear/worry?
Dying a boring death.

27. Do you consider yourself more introverted or extroverted?
Very extroverted. Although most people irritate me.

28. What was your past like and how do you look back on it?
I had to overcome a lot more than most in my younger days. It made me strong and disciplined. I had something to fight for. I had purpose and a challenge. I think I was happier then. Life is too easy and I have nothing to fight for. It is boring.

29. Choose an image or photograph that you like and upload it. Why do you like this image/photo? Be specific.

Nope. my image links never work here.

30. What dog breed do you associate with yourself and why?

A French bulldog. Upon seeing one drag it's exhausted and snorting little body across the floor on it's front legs to get pets I said " Aw it reminds me of me! It's funny lookin, it's pieces don't quite fit together and It can barely breath but that is not going to slow him down!"

Your Pup Personality is...
ANATOLIAN SHEPHERD DOG

90

Credit for Picture - Vetstreet

Originally bred in Turkey for guarding livestock, you can tell that these dogs were bred well for their function just by glancing at them. Strong, intimidating, and reserved like a true guard dog, the Anatolian Shepherd Dog gets the best traits of both working and herding dogs, with the loyalty and independence of a worker while possessing the intelligent, trainable, and curious mindset true to every shepherd. These are rather professional dogs that always feel like they are on guard, extending that protectiveness to their masters to prevent any harm. While these massive guards are definitely not show dogs by any means, any family with an Anatolian will say just how amazing they are.

I hope this was accurate! More are coming soon, I'm just very busy.
