The French Bulldog has recently become the most popular dog breed in the United States, according to the American Kennel Club's annual ranking of dog breeds. This is the first time in 31 years that the US has a new favorite dog breed. The AKC's ranking is based on approximately 716,500 voluntary records of dog owners' dogs, and does not include mixed breeds or designer hybrids such as Labradoodles, as the American Kennel Club only recognizes 200 dog breeds. French Bulldogs are a favorite of celebrities such as Reese Witherspoon and Megan Thee Stallion, and their popularity continues to grow. However, it is essential to do research before committing to this breed.
The Labrador Retriever ranked second on the list, and is widely known as a companion dog that can be trained as a guide or assistance dog. The Golden Retriever came in third place, and is an ideal breed for guiding the blind and enjoys obedience and other competitive events. The Labrador Retriever remains a popular breed among pet owners, falling only to number two. The Golden Retriever remains stable at number three. The German Shepherd and Poodle are close behind.
Overall, the top ten positions remain the same, but their position in the ranking may have changed compared to last year.
