The Triangle's most popular dog breed

State of play: A new Rover report ranks the most popular and fastest-trending dog breeds in cities across the U.S.

Yes, but: The "reserved and wary" Boerboel is Raleigh's fastest-trending breed year over year, while the "territorial and deeply loyal" Mountain Cur takes that title in Durham.

Our thought bubble: Learning about our area's favorite breeds can be fun, but don't forget about the shelter dogs that need homes, too.

By the numbers: Raleigh also comes in as No. 94 and Durham as No. 97 on the list of top 107 U.S. cities for dog walking, based on Redfin walkability data.
