2019 is coming to a close, and its time to rank the most popular breeds of this year. We determine the top breeds using our rating system from in-store requests and purchases. While we celebrate the uniqueness of every dog breed because we are passionate about dogs, here are the top three breeds we ranked for 2019.

- Labrador Retriever — The year’s most adventurous dog breed, the famous Labrador Retriever. In 2019 we saw an increase in owners looking for an adventure companion, and Labs fit the bill. Whether it is a hike up a steep mountain or a play date at the lake, Labs are always down for an excursion. They are fearless companions who love to have fun in the great outdoors,

- French Bulldogs — The award for the most affectionate dog breed, goes to the loving Frenchie pup. We deem them the best dog for quality family time because they’re great with kids of all ages. The medium-sized Frenchie pups enjoy every moment spent with their family. Frenchie pups are super affectionate and do not like to be left out of family time.

- The Pug – The most outgoing dog breed. The Pug has always been known for having an extremely outgoing personality. These dogs know how to make their owners smile and have a great day. They are also not afraid to communicate their needs. These dogs do not grow to be that big in size so they won’t take up too much space in your home.

There you have it the best in class for 2019 and overall timeless choices for companions. Whether you are looking for an adventure, affection or attention these breeds are a perfect choice. The new year is fast approaching and we are excited to see which breed will be trending next year.

         Petland Leon Valley   758 Google reviews   Write a review                 Posted on Google        Karina R     Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My dad got my Malti-poo from this store 6yrs ago when I was a teen. We bought him at 3mo old! He was a happy puppy. My family requested to play with him in the little cubicles and we were delighted. He was a little pricey, but he had his papers, proper shots/vaccines, and had an underbite that made him adorable. He’s doing well even today! Never gotten injured or sick. He’s expected to live the normal expectancy of a malti-poo.
I don’t remember much about the store or any changes since then, but I remember that the lady helping us was nice!
Here is Marshmallow!         Posted on Google        Charles B     Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Lots of dogs for adoption, well taken care of. Also have some birds, rabbits and a few sleepy ferrits. I stopped in for some feeder fish. Very nice staff.

Loved the exotic birds         Posted on Google        Melinda R     Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This was my 2nd time back. My daughter has been wanting another set of guinea pigs. I saw the most beautiful lionhead rabbit 🐇 about 7 weeks. LORENZO educated me on their demeanor, foods etc... I was there a good while, he showed no signs of rushing me, or pushing a sale. Answered all my questions and even educated me on ferrets as i asked lol he loves his job & wish all associates were like this everywhere! I was very pleased 😀 didn't grab the rabbit as my daughter took forever to answer me, but we're leaving for vacation and would not be cool to leave him alone . We will be back! And I will only ask for him! Thank you for the great customer service!
