Note: This list draws from sources indicating popularity through shelter data, DNA testing (e.g., Embark’s analysis of over 200,000 mixed-breed dogs), and mentions of designer breeds across pet-related websites. Some breeds, like Pit Bull mixes, are prevalent due to large litter sizes and lax spay/neuter laws, while Poodle mixes dominate due to their hypoallergenic traits. Breeds like the Labradoodle and Goldendoodle are consistently cited as top choices for their family-friendly traits, while others, like the Rotterman or Saint Pyrenees, are less common but recognized for unique characteristics.
