For the 29th year in a row, the Labrador Retriever is the most popular dog breed in America. The American Kennel Club (AKC) notes the breed first popped up in the most popular breeds in the '70s and has been sought-after ever since. The rest of the top 10 remains nearly unchanged from the previous year with German Shepherd (2), Golden Retriever (3), French Bulldog (4) and the Bulldog (5) are the top 5 breeds. Although not in the first 10, there are other breeds that are jumping up on the list, including the No. 15 Siberian husky, the No. 13, Australian shepherd, the No. 23 Bernese mountain dog.
