An estimated 32 percent of New Jersey households include dogs, and the majority of these are found in the counties of Essex, Middlesex and Bergen. New Jersey’s favourite dog breeds are the Labrador Retriever, the Golden Retriever and the French Bulldog. Small breed favourites include the Pembroke Welsh Corgi, the Dachshund and the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. One of New Jersey’s classiest celebs, Martha Stewart, owns two French Bulldogs named Bete Noire and Creme Brûlée, plus three Chow Chows by the names of Genghis Khan, Peluche and Empress Chin. That’s on top of all her cats, birds, horses and donkeys!
