AKC releases list of top breeds
So where does your dog breed place on the new list of top breeds released by the American Kennel Club?
Border collies rank #52, but have been coming up in popularity over the past few years.
The bulldog is reportedly the top breed in the city of Los Angeles (although I thought earlier reports put it at Chihuahuas).

Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.

Josh Grossberg grew up with the usual array of animals: goldfish, dogs, hamsters, parakeets and turtles. He now owns the loudest dog in the South Bay(Video: Rocket the Dog) and is the least popular person on his block. He spends his free time in dog parks, pet shops and always has an extra plastic bag in his pocket just in case. He also has a cat.

After being in the #3 spot for several years the German Shepherd has taken the #2 spot! Will it take the throne next year??
I have 2 German Shepherds! I love them to the ends! They are GREAT dogs and very loveable. The German Shepherd has always been my #1 since I was very little.
