The Most Popular Dog Breeds In Metro Milwaukee For 2020
MILWAUKEE, WI — The Bichon Frise is the most popular dog breed in metro Milwaukee, according to a new report from Rover.
The second annual report from the online pet care marketplace ranks the top 20 most popular breeds across the country and includes the five most popular dog breeds in the 50 largest U.S. cities, including the Milwaukee metro area.
Here are the five favorite doggos in our city:
1) Bichon Frise
2) Goldendoodle
3) Beagle
4) Border Collie
5) Labradoodle
The Bichon Frise is considered a cute, compact pup is perfect for apartment dwellers. Quite the little show-offs, bichons enjoy performing tricks for their pet parents and strangers alike.
The mixed breed ranked as the No. 1 most popular dog in the United States, with the Labrador retriever, Chihuahua, German shepherd and golden retriever rounding out a very cute top five.
Rover analyzed data for more than a half-million pet parents to determine the different levels of popularity of our furry friends.
The pet website also included a “Dog Breed Selector” in the 2020 report, which matches you with a dog breed based on different aspects of your lifestyle.
Rover also surveyed 1,000 U.S. pet parents to find out how they picked the right breed for their family. This year’s breed preferences “uniquely reflect the changing world around us: dog adoption rates have increased since the COVID-19 pandemic began, and nearly one-third of respondents said they adopted a dog while coronavirus social distancing measures have been in effect,” Rover said in a news release.
