We know which dog breeds are most popular in different parts of the United States, but which breeds are our readers searching for the most?
You’ve already seen which giant breeds vetstreet.com readers are most interested in learning about — the 10 large breeds with the most searches since the start of 2015 are listed here. But how about small breeds?
We parsed through several thousand searches to come up with the list above. And, for each of the breeds listed, we included all obvious varieties of the breed name: misspellings, nicknames and abbreviations, as well as any searches for the breed name with other information. So, for example, "What does a Shih Tzu chew on?" counted as a search for that breed.
However, any searches for a breed along with another breed ("Maltese" and "Poodle") were not counted, nor were any designer mixes or other mixed-breed nicknames ("Maltipoo"). Finally, to be considered, breeds had to have a maximum top weight of 25 pounds.
Did your favorite breed make the list?
