No. Just like brothers and sister out of the same parents can be different, dogs are like that also.

No, not the same personality as one another. Personality is built by the individual owner. They have the same breed traits as one another.. Or they should anyhow.. Most breeds are bred for a specific job, they must maintain that ability, many don't... but they should.. For example the Shepherd is a herding dog.. You can see when you walk with them, they tend to try and herd you together. A Doberman is bred to pretect, and you can see them naturally checking out the perimeter of the yard, and watching for anything new or something that has changed or is different.. They will have very different personalities one to the next but they should maintain their specific breed traits.

Hybrid vigor contends that due to larger gene pools, mixed breed dogs are superior in health and temperament to purebred dogs. What do I think? The theory sounds good. Regarding temperament, though, I've met as many purebred dogs as mixed with good personalities. In short, No. Purebred dogs do not have identical personalities.

OH NO!
the personality is based how you treat and train them
I spoiled my Boston Terrier and now she's a brat and thinks she can get away with anything. She was a really chill pup and slept anywhere and was a lap puppy, now she's hyper.
For Example:
I just recently can a litter and I have a female that doesn't like to fight just chill out but pounce on her and she'll bite back
and I have a male that Loves to BITE but that can be corrected with training
Granted there are things you can't get away from. Boston's LOVE to destroy a room or house or yard ANYTHING if unhappy... actually they are known for getting into this MISCHIEF..
I gave my dog a stuffed donkey pet toy when she was a pup, now over a year later that same "baby" is a strip of cloth that lost it's squeaker, face, guts, and tail.
LOL it's just 4 little feet barely connected to each other BUT she STILL LOVES IT!

A dog like a child is a product of genetics, the home environment, the discipline and the training. You could seperate identical twins at birth, and give one to a wonderful, loving, nurturing family. Give the other twin to a family of drug addicts, where the baby is ignored at times, other times beaten. Anger and avuse is a part of their daily lives. Those twins would turn into very different people because of their environment. Same with dogs.

NO. There is even variation within the same breed. Each breed has some personality traits you can expect to find with that breed. Within the same breed each dog has his/her own personality. Kind of like each kid in the family has their own personality. Each of mine even has a little different bark. I can tell who is barking from the sound. Even when they are groomed the same, I can tell who I'm petting with my eyes closed. No two alike in my experience. Within the same breed, I see similarities in personality as well as looks in each separate blood line. But even with similar blood lines in the same breed, each dog is a little different.

Absolutely not! We have had two Labradors. The yellow one practically trained herself and acted more like a guide dog in temperment, very mellow. The chocolate one was "more challenging" shall we say. She's 8 now and a wonderful calm pet but she was a lot of work.

No. Dogs are just like humans, you are not the same as your brother or sister, or mother and father. Just like us, dogs wil have similar traits just like humans.
