The AKC recently announced their annual list of the top ten most popular dog breeds in America.  Some of the list may surprise you, but others may not.  Check out the list of the top 10 most popular dog breeds.

10.  Shih Tzu

9.  Poodle

8.  Dachshund

7.  Bulldog

6.  Boxer

5.  Beagle

4.  Golden Retriever

3.  Yorkshire Terrier

2.  German Shepherd

1.  Labrador Retriever

What do you think it is about the Labrador that makes them extremely popular year after year?  Is it their size, personality, versatility, cultural viewpoint, or something else?

As the owner of a Labrador (that is my dog Boomer pictured above) I chose the breed because of the high energy level and the ability to excel is many different disciplines (obedience, field work, dock dogs, etc).  For those of you with Labs, and those of you who don’t have Labs, what is your input; why did you chose the breed you did?
