I want a pet : Choose a Breed
Which Breed Is Best For You?
Many people are surprised to learn that approximately 25% of the animals at the Seattle Humane Society are purebred. We have a lot of fun identifying, naming, and describing the types of breeds and mixes we are rescuing. It helps us understand and predict behavior too. When you are selecting a breed, we suggest that you do some research. After all, you'll want to find a best friend who fits into your family just right! For more information about breed attributes and characteristics, you can visit our Adoption Center, where our trained adoption counselors can help make sure a particular pet is the right fit for you and your family.
You can also find a lot of useful information online. Below are some helpful links:
