Who doesn’t love dogs? Did you know the adoption rates in the past two years throughout the pandemic were way up? People want dogs around.

There are hundreds of different breeds of dogs, but what is the most popular? If you look around Charlotte, it would make sense to guess a Poodle or a Golden Retriever as the most popular dog breed. While those made the list, they weren’t at the top spot. These are the true most popular dog breeds of 2021, according to the American Kennel Club.
