2013 Top Ten AKC Breeds

 

We recently received our latest copy of  Trends  magazine, a publication of the American Animal Hospital Association.  One of the articles that drew our attention lists the top ten dog breeds for 2013 according to the American Kennel Club.

Here is the list:

  1. Labrador Retriever
  2. German Shepherd
  3. Golden Retriever
  4. Beagle
  5. Bulldog
  6. Yorkshire Terrier
  7. Boxer
  8. Poodle
  9. Rottweiler
  10. Dachshund

Interestingly enough, coming in at #11 is the French Bulldog.  This breed has had a dramatic increase in registrations since 2003.  

Another interesting fact is that the Labrador Retriever tops the list for the 23rd consecutive year.  One other trend of note: large breed dogs have experienced a rise in popularity over the past 5 years. The article cites an improving economy as the possible reason for this increase.

Earlier this month, USA Today published in article in which it was stated that the Environmental Protection Agency issued a report about potential problems with one of the more popular flea and tick products, the Seresto collar by Elanco Animal Health. According to the USA Today article, Seresto collars have been associated with the death of close to 1700 animals. In addition, the article claimed that tens of thousand of pets were injured, along with several hundred human injuries.
