Put this together with my son to learn more about popular dog breeds. Data source: American Kennel Club

Is there a description of what the different attributes are and what the numbers mean?

I'm having trouble understanding what "Mental Stimulation" is, and what a high or low score means.

Or shedding. Does a high number mean more shedding or that their shedding is easier to manage.

Yes good call. 5 means high and 1 means low. I’ll add some better descriptions. Thanks!

Thanks. Another example, at first I thought barking 5 meant "less barking" because that's more desirable. But when I went to do further research on a breed I found it was the opposite!
