Are beagles the first second or third dog in the us?

Beagles are not considered the first, second, or third most popular dog breed in the U.S. According to the American Kennel Club, the most popular breeds tend to fluctuate, with breeds like Labrador Retrievers, French Bulldogs, and Golden Retrievers often leading the list. Beagles typically rank in the top ten but do not hold the top spots consistently. Their popularity is attributed to their friendly nature and adaptability.
