01 Protective Pup
Australian Shepherd
CALIFORNIA
Despite its name, the Australian shepherd is actually a descendent of dogs the Spanish brought to California in the 1500s. It gets its name from the New Zealand and Australian collies that were part of that group. This athletic dog gained popularity in the 2000s, but their herding instinct and need for consistent exercise has not been bred out, so it is important for humans to establish clear dominance, especially in homes with children.
02 Small Size, Big Personality
Chihuahua
MEXICO
Based on DNA analysis, Chihuahuas are believed to be one of only two native American breeds to survive since pre-colonization. Explorer Hernán Cortés wrote that he discovered the Aztecs raising and selling the little dogs for food. Today, they're known for being keen companions but display above-average aggression.
03 Independent Instincts
Catahoula Leopard Dog
LOUISIANA
This medium-build, short-haired dog breed is known for its wide variety of coat and eye colors. It is noted as being the only breed to have originated in the state of Louisiana. Its likely ancestor is the Beauceron, having been crossbred with Native American wolf dogs to aid early French settlers with swamp hunting. These dogs are known for their need for early training to break their independent, territorial instinct.
