APPA: Cane Corso is Georgia’s most Googled dog breed (Sorry Uga)

 

The American Pet Products Association (APPA) has revealed that as of 2023, 66% of all American households own dogs, approximately 86.9 million homes.  

   

With this in mind, Dog Advisory Council experts determined which breeds are top dogs in each state. Using the American Kennel Club's most popular breeds of 2022 list, the experts gathered Google search volume data to discover the top five most popular dogs in each US state.   

  

Top five most popular dog breeds in Georgia: 

  

1. Cane Corso – 60,500 monthly Google searches  

2. French Bulldog – 33,100 monthly Google searches  

3. German Shepherd – 27,100 monthly Google searches  

4. Boxer – 27,100 monthly Google searches  

5. Australian Shepherd – 27,100 monthly Google searches 

   

   

The Cane Corso is the most Googled dog breed in 46 US states, including Florida, Georgia, Connecticut, Idaho, and Kentucky. There are a massive 60,500 estimated Google searches for the breed per month in Georgia. Cane Corsos are somewhat intimidating in appearance, with a large head and rippling muscles beneath their short dark coats. The Cane Corso's Latin name roughly translates to 'bodyguard dog,' the perfect description for these incredibly protective and vigilant dogs. Despite this harsh exterior, Cane Corsos are affectionate with their family and eager to please them.    

  

French Bulldogs come in second place with 33,100 estimated Google searches per month. French Bulldogs are incredibly affectionate and loving to their families. With a high adaptability level and an innate eagerness to please, this breed is easy to train. French Bulldogs require very little grooming, making this a low-maintenance breed to care for.   

 

The German Shepherd takes third place with 27,100 estimated monthly Google searches in Georgia. The German Shepherd is easy to train and very good with children. Those seeking to add this breed to their family should be mindful that this particular breed is incredibly energetic and needs a lot of mental stimulation to stay happy and healthy. An active owner is a must for this dog!  

  

Dr. Lizzie Youens, a Veterinary Surgeon, commented on the findings:   

  

"This interesting research reveals huge interest in the Cane Corso breed. This striking breed has been rising in popularity across the US ever since it was first recognized as a breed by the American Kennel Club in 2010. Loyal and loving, Cane Corsos can make excellent pets. However, they are large, intelligent, and very active dogs who need an experienced owner with the time to dedicate to training and exercise. These powerful dogs can weigh more than 100 pounds and can be highly assertive, so they are recommended for households with older children only if in a family setting."
