Why is German Shepherd the most popular breed of dog?
Almost everyone i know has a german shepherd. When i walk my dog or take him out i see several german shepherds being walked.
I have newfoundland dog, and it is very rare that i have seen anyone having a landseer newfoundland.
So i’m just curious — what makes german shepherd so popular and newfoundland kind of unpopular?
Publicity.
Cop dogs are just freaking cool.
Also,
German Shepards are supposed to be a "all purpose" sort of dog. Good as pets, guards, police dogs, agility, tracking. You name it, GS’s excel at it. (well, generally)
Newfies are known for their layed back attitudes and strength, but they aren’t as many of them around for people to see and get to know.

I don’t know that they’re the "most popular", but there are a ton, aren’t there? Lots in my neighborhood too. Not sure why not too many people have newfies, but just consider yourself unique! I haven’t seen a landseer in a long time, such beauties. Part of why I got my dog (a Chinese crested) was because I didn’t want the same dog as everyone else, so I hear ya!

It’s sort of a fad thing, I think. Just like how Labs and Yorkies are really popular. Everyone has to have the "cool" dog, or the "best" dog. I think it’s a good thing that you have an uncommon dog. It makes you more unique and not so mainstream. In my opinion, I would choose a Newfie over a Yorkie, Lab, German Shepherd, or any really popular dog any day.

i was under the impression that it was still labs that were the most popular

I think it has to do with the area you live in-which dogs are most available, climate, reason for getting a dog (a lot of people get hunting dogs where I live). The most common dogs where I live are mutts. The most common purebreds are labs.
