Labrador Retrievers still top dog in Honolulu, nation

Advertiser Staff

We love our retrievers here in Honolulu — still.

The American Kennel Club released its list this week of the top 10 most popular AKC registered dogs in Honolulu for 2006, and the Labrador Retriever was the No. 1 choice — just as it has been every year since 1991.

Labrador Retrievers were also top dog nationwide, but the rest of the list for Honolulu differs from the national list:
