Signature Canadian Breeds and Pet Names

| July 6, 2017 | Cute & Fun With Pets, Feature Story | No Comments

In our celebration of Canada’s birthday, we’re taking a road trip across the country to check out signature Canadian breeds and pet names. While we’ve looked at a few signature breeds in Canadian cities before, this time we’re diving deep into each province.

Signature Canadian breeds or pet names are not necessarily the most popular, but the most distinct. This means that based on Trupanion’s data these names and breeds are seen with a higher frequency in these provinces than the rest of Canada.

When not at work you can probably find her watching a soccer game, making short videos or searching for the greatest sandwich in Seattle.
