Thursday (April 11) marks National Pet Day, a day celebrating the joy pets bring into people’s lives and aims to encourage people to help reduce the number of animals in shelters.

Ahead of the celebrations, Betway carried out a study to find out the most popular dog breeds across Edinburgh

They used Brandwatch, a social listening tool, to analyse the total number of monthly online mentions of the favourite dog breeds over the past year.
