Puppies are amazing. They are designed to melt your heart at first sight. From their tiny button noses, to the way their eyes light up when they play. Everything about them is made to make you want to take them home immediately. There’s a reason that so many people adopt puppies every year, and why puppies never last in a shelter long before somebody snatches them up.

Playing with puppies is hands down one of the best parts of my job. Seeing a new puppy on the schedule is like seeing a bright spot on a cloudy day, and it’s always a happy experience. Just like with people, every puppy has its own unique personality. Half of the adventure of interacting with puppies is getting to see this personality and watch it develop over time.

Throughout my time as a veterinarian, some of these personalities stand out more than others. Here they are in no particular order, my favorite three puppy personalities.
