About this template

Rank the breeds

Somebody in your life will die on the Chihuahua hill, and somebody else genuinely believes a Husky belongs in a one-bedroom flat. Both of them will argue with you about it. This dog breed tier list maker loads Labradors, Golden Retrievers, German Shepherds, Corgis, Beagles, Border Collies, Shiba Inus and Dachshunds so the argument can start immediately.

Nobody is objective here. The breed you grew up with gets a head start no ranking system can correct for — say so out loud and rank it high anyway.

Temperament, size, shedding, how much walking a breed truly needs versus what owners like to pretend: use whichever of those matters in your house. Recolor the rows, add the mutt that raised you, and save the dog breed ranking as a clean PNG when the order stops bothering you. First tier list ever? how to make a tier list takes about two minutes, and so does what S-tier really means.

What counts as an S tier dog breed?

S-tier is a ten-year commitment, not a compliment. Plenty of stunning breeds don't belong anywhere near it — a Border Collie in the wrong home makes for a miserable dog and a miserable owner. The breeds that match your space, your schedule and your tolerance for hair on everything are what make S tier dog breeds mean anything. A-tier are the near-misses you'd still say yes to. B and C are breeds that thrive with the right owner and struggle badly with the wrong one. D is where the dogs you admire in photographs and nowhere else end up. Temperament usually decides it, though exercise needs quietly decide more than most people expect.

FAQ

How do I make a dog breed tier list?+

Every option is pre-loaded in the tray below — drag each one into a tier from S (best) to D, then click Export PNG to save and share your ranking.

What is the best dog breed?+

The honest answer is the breed that matches your life. Labradors, Golden Retrievers and German Shepherds top favorite-breed polls year after year, but a high-energy dog in a small flat makes nobody happy, so rank for your actual routine.

How should I rank dog breeds?+

Choose the trait that would really shape your day — temperament, size, shedding, or how much exercise the breed needs — and judge every dog by it. A big shedder can be an easy S for one person and a firm D for someone with allergies.

Can I add my own?+

Yes. Hit “Add items” and type anything we missed, one per line. Add, rename, recolor and reorder tiers however you like.

Is this tier list maker free?+
