What breed is the most popular in your town?

[primabella]

I would say Labs and GSD's are very popular around here. About everybody owns or has owned a Lab and I see many GSD's going for walks and such. That's why when you take a "Lassie" to the park, people have to pet him. He's something new. lol I wish there were more Shelties though...

. Also sadly, according to our city and county euthanasia statisitics, between 75% and 85% of the dogs euthanized every year due to lack of homes.

I don't know what our city stats are overall, but I went to a meeting last night to become a volunteer at our local humane society, which is not a no-kill, but very low-kill ( for severe illness or health issues) Their rate is only 8%. I thought that was amazing.

It seems that I mostly see Labs, Goldens, Shih tzus and Cocker Spaniels. Probably in that order to.

Our local shelters are also filled with pits, rotties and german shepherds, many of which come in as strays. When I take the dogs on a walk through the neighborhood I usually see, either outside in a fenced yard or barking at us through a window, a black lab, two rotties, a yorkie, two tiny little bull dogs (I forget the correct name of that breed ) a chihuahua and a couple of small mixed breed dogs. Bella is sometimes intimidated by the dogs that bark at us on our walk and her tail dips down but Ripley is fearless and his tail stays up and wags. (He doesn't realize how small he is! hehe! )

we live in Grants Pass, Oregon. I have to say I have seen a lot of labs, pugs, terrier type dogs, & sheps. and a lot of mixed dogs. sometimes mixed can be really good dogs though. there seems to be a lot of those at the pound and humane society.

As you can see in my signiture, my dog, Sully, is a mix and he was very easy to train and is a great dog.

I see a TON of Labs (there's one next door and six on the next street over). In the shelter, almost EVERY dog is either a Lab or a Lab mix. I see a lot of Daschunds, some beagles but not to the extent of the Lab but the majority I would have to say is your grade A, average Mutt I guess the people in my town are mutt lovers
