Illinois Popular Dog Breeds

Illinois has some of the most dog friendly towns and cities in the US. Some of the most popular breeds in Illinois include Golden Retrievers, Goldendoodles, Chihuahuas, Labrador Retrievers, Shih Tzus, Pitbulls, German Shepherds, and Beagles. Here’s what you can expect with these breeds if you bring a puppy into your Illinois home.

Golden Retrievers in Illinois: This is an active, playful, and affectionate breed with a gentle temperament. Your Golden Retriever will love playing a game of fetch with you in one of the many dog-friendly parks in Illinois.

Goldendoodles in Illinois: This is a hybrid between a Golden Retriever and a Poodle and adapts well to both city living and country life. Goldendoodles are sweet natured and love being around people.

Chihuahuas in Illinois: This is a pint-sized dog with a big personality and great self-confidence. Chihuahuas love children and will do well with an Illinois family looking for a pet that doesn’t have high exercise needs but still enjoys leisurely walks in the park. Also, Chihuahuas are great subway commuters, so if you live in an apartment in a big city in Illinois, this might be the ideal pet.

Labrador Retrievers in Illinois: Lab Retrievers are active dogs that have a great deal of energy. They make excellent family pets and are amazing companions for people who love to go running or hiking. City dwellers in Illinois will need to take their Lab Retriever to dog parks regularly to expend all the energy these dogs have.
