What does your pet resemble?

Take a photo or choose one from your computer. We first check that a dog or cat is actually present, then compare visible breed features without uploading the image.

  • No account required
  • Rejects photos without a cat or dog
  • One main resemblance, then three alternatives
Photo identification

Choose a pet photo

Stays on this device

Take a new photo or upload one you already have. A general image detector checks for a cat or dog before the matching breed model runs.

First use downloads an approximately 10 MB cat-and-dog check. Detected cats then load the approximately 90 MB cat model; detected dogs load the approximately 10 MB dog model. Your browser may cache them.

How the photo check works

A careful answer, not a confident guess.

  1. 01

    Choose a clear photo

    Include the face and as much of the body as you comfortably can.

  2. 02

    Confirm the animal

    The detector must find a cat or dog before any breed model runs.

  3. 03

    Review resemblances

    See one leading visual match and up to three other possibilities.
