It’s a dog eat dog world out there, but in Atlanta, it’s a Lab’s world, as in Labrador Retriever! The breed once again took Atlanta’s top woof in the American Kennel Club’s (AKC) 2017 ranking of the most popular dog breeds in the country.
The Lab came in No. 1 in Buffalo and Nashville, underscoring just how popular the pups are. Rounding out the top five in Atlanta were bulldogs (of course).
“The Labrador Retriever held strongly to the number one spot in Atlanta,” AKC Executive Secretary Gina DiNardo said in a statement. “But the Bulldog is certainly pawing its way up the ranks, landing only one place behind its cousin, the French Bulldog.”
