When i meet other people's dog only 1 in 20 seem to have basic manners and all it requires imo is common sense on the owners part, not some high priced trainer.
Anyway, i've made a quiz on all the things that i think a dog should do to be considered well behaved and many aren't even about training, but about the dog respecting the owner.
Please be honest.
How well behaved is your dog out of 10?
Does your dog jump up when meeting people? Yes = 0, No = 1
Does your dog ever growl/flash teeth when not playing? Yes = 0, No = 1
Does your dog stop barking when you tell it to? Yes = 1, No = 0
Does your dog stay within 20m of you when off the lead? Yes = 1, No = 0
If you dropped food on the floor, would your dog try to take it? Yes = 0, No = 1
Would your dog attack another dog? Yes = 0, No = 1
Is your dog relaxed no matter where you or others touch it? Yes = 1, No = 0
If you closed your dog in a room, would it try to break out? Yes = 0, No = 1
Would you trust your dog if a child approached? Yes = 1, No = 0
Does your dog assume to jump on furniture and beds without invitation? Yes = 0, No = 1
You don't have to copy and paste, you can just put your score out of 10.
Thanks

bearing in mind hes a 12 and a half year old cavalier king charles that is a bit overweight and almost deaf i think that doing the test really didn't count to me and my dog lol.
forgeting the two 1-0 i would score 6/8 :)))))))))))))) not every dog is perfect! - My Westie got a 5 out of 10, he isn't really well mannered, but we love him. We rescued him from a shelter, and that's the best we could do with him manner wise, before we trained him, be probably would have gotten a 0 out of 10.
Our dachshund got a 6 out of 10, but she is still a puppy, and we still need to train her. - 8.
The two questions that took points off.
- She has improved greatly when it comes to jumping on people but it's a work in progress, not perfect yet.
- She would & has attacked another dog defending herself. The other dog bit her in the face. - 1-yes (he loves being around people)
2-no
3-yes (but only if ive told him 2 or 3 times not to )
4-yes
5-yes :(
6-nopee
7-yes he likes that

I believe that gives me a 10/10. I rock and so do my dogs. - Dallas 12 month old ST/Dane mix= 8
Joey 14 yr sheltie/? = 9 - I started your quiz but then stopped half way through. Some of the questions are legitimate, but some are really dependant on the breed of your dog, instincts and drives and not about training.
as an example, “Does your dog stay within 20m of you when off the lead”. some dog breeds are very good at following and remaining close to their owners other breeds have stronger instincts to wonder or chase after things, what's more important to me is that people understand their dog enough and know what will happen when they let their dog off the lead and know how to manager it, or whether they should let them off the lead at all.
another example "would your dog attack another dog" whether people like it or not some breeds of dog are animal aggressive. While training may help to reduce an instinct like this, it cannot remove it all together. As such certain breeds should not be completely trusted around other dogs.
Another example “If you closed your dog in a room, would it try to break out”
Some breeds are more trustworthy when left alone in a room, others will tear the place apart, regardless of how well trained the dog is. - 1) 8/10
2) No
3) Sometimes
4) Yes
5) Yes
6) Sometimes
7) Yes =[
8) No
9) No
10) Ehhh... yes
11) Sometimes
