What would you say is the most popular breeds where you live? I'm not talking about your entire city but just in your neighbourhood? I think around here the breeds I see most in order are:
Belgian Turvuren
Bichon/Shih-tzu mix
German Shepherd

Without a doubt Golden Retrievers, followed by little teeny dogs--usually ShiTzu.

Right in my neighborhood, mutts are #1.
But the general area I would say labs.

Alaskan Huskies--I'd say 95% of the dogs in the entire territory are husky crosses. 90% of those are black and white!

Labs... labs, labs, and more labs. Quite a few Beagles, Border Collies, and Aussies. But of course we see quite a few mutts, but I do beleive labs are most popular around here.
wolf_Q
11-02-2004, 09:03 PM
LABS!! I bet they are the most popular dog in the state, especially since many people use them to hunt.
On my street and around that the dogs that I can think of are labs, beagles, dachshunds, border collies, malamutes, schnauzers, boxers, and several mixed breeds. Oh yes, and the psycho boston terriers that have attacked me and my dogs on several occasions, mustn't forget them! :rolleyes:

Labradors are EVERYWHERE since there are a lot of hunters in my town and surrounding areas. There are about 6 Boxers within 10 blocks of my house, numerous Beagles, and a GORGEOUS mantle merle Great Dane that makes me swoon everytime I see it!
Aspen and Misty
11-02-2004, 10:54 PM

Dachshunds - there's a little side street I refer to as Dachshund Corner, I have seen a smooth-coat black and tan one, a blue merle one, a red long-haired one, a small red smooth-coat - all from this little area. Besides that, mutts!, a husky and a Yorkie! There are two miniature poodles, but they're never out of their yard, so I hear more than see them.

Well , for the most part round here it's Pekineses and shi tzus but that is not suprising as I live China LOL! At my home in Canada though it is mostly Labs,GSDs and mixes thereof.

Actually in our whole area of the state the most comman is Border Collies, Australian Cattle Dogs, and BC/Australian Shepherd mixes. We are in a rural area; most people have dogs just to work the livestock.
The most common dogs just for pets in the area would probably be labs, lab mixes, and mutts.

We still don’t have many pure breeds in the Faroes, but we do have a lot of sheep, so local sheepdogs is the most common dog around.

Huh...That's weird. I'm guessing you live in a wealthier area? I've been to China several times for months to visit my family (the ones who refuse to move), and I've *never* seen a pet dog. Of course, my family members are not rich and probably could not afford a dog. The children don't want one anyways...
Most common dog: Definitely Labs. My Pekingese, Goldens, Belgian Tervurens, GSDs, and two Iggies, and of course mutts!

Our neighborhood has about a million beagles. We didn't know that until we got ours last March and everyone started to come outside again but we live in a really small neighborhood where few people own dogs--those that do have beagles! then labs, dachshunds and some really crazy folks have a HUGE sheepdog.

Deffinatley messed up neurotic backyard breeder "labs" I am cautioned by their owners to stay away because they aren't good with other kids or dogs. We also have 3 or 4 shelties, a Bullmastiff, a Mastiff, 2 corgis(one variety each) a collie and a few mutties! We also have a few dals.

Out here in the country, it's working dogs - border collies and shepherds mostly. I'd say it's an equal mix of the two (with some shepherd/border collie crosses of course).
In town, it was more labs and lab mixes.

That seems to be the type of labs which were prevalent when we lived in town. I don't know if it was the dogs' genetic makeup, or just the fact that all of these "2.5 kids, a dog, a cat, and a picket fence" perfect families didn't understand that dogs don't arrive perfectly well-trained, so they all stuck them out in the yards and left them there.
