The 20 Most Owned Dog Breeds of 2017

20. Rhodesian Ridgeback

Rhodesian Ridgebacks were bred and used for lion hunting and therefore, are strong, fairly active and good watchdogs. They are a large breed and many people own Rhodesian Ridgebacks for their good companionship and their love of being active with their dog. They are great jogging companions. The breed can make a great family pet since they are good with children, although due to their size, they can play rough and knock a small child down, so they should not only be monitored around children, but they do need to be socialized very early on to train them how to interact with kids, as well as other animals. This is not a good breed for a passive dog owner who is not authoritative and takes on the pack leader role well.
