Mixed dog breeds are becoming increasingly popular all over the world, but some classic breeds are still loved by millions for their lovely personalities and cute little faces. If you’re looking for a dog that will stand out in a crowd, find out which breeds are truly stylish.
Discover the most fashionable dog breeds, pups that will love you unconditionally, while also drawing attention to how cute they are every time you take them out for a walk.
Pug
Imported from China to Europe in the Middle Ages during the 16th century, pugs have a much different look than those original dogs, but the same lovable personality. If you’re looking for a bigger version that’s just as cute, the Puggle, a pug and beagle mix, is even more fashionable, despite the breed being less than 30 years old. Celebrities who love pugs include Jessica Alba, Tori Spelling and Kelly Osbourne.
Goldendoodle
A hybrid of golden retrievers and poodles, the Goldendoodle is definitely one of the most fashionable dog breeds, and one of the most popular mixed breeds. Shedding much less than golden retrievers, goldendoodles are great companion dogs, but their appearance varies a lot. A healthy and intelligent breed, their popularity is increasing every year. Usher and Kenny Chesney are among the breed’s celebrity fans.
French Bulldog
All bulldog breeds are popular, but the French Bulldog is one of the cutest breeds of small dogs. Stubborn if they’re not socialized and trained correctly, French bulldogs or Frenchies don’t usually bark, so they’re a good choice if you plan on traveling and taking your dog along for the ride. Celebrities who helped increase their popularity include Reese Witherspoon, Ian Somerhalder and John Legend.
Labradoodle
Definitely one of the most fashionable dog breeds, the Labradoodle is a cross between a labrador and a poodle, with a lovely personality and less shedding than a labrador. Some are considered hypoallergenic, and they come in all sizes. Celebrities who’ve jumped on the Labradoodle bandwagon include Jennifer Aniston, Lance Bass, Christie Brinkley, and Tiger Woods.
Yorkshire Terrier
If you’re looking for a toy breed that is as cute as it is loving, the Yorkshire Terrier is an excellent choice. It’s a very popular breed around the world and a hit with many celebrities. Miley Cyrus, Gisele Bündchen, Natalie Portman, and Miranda Kerr all love their Yorkies, since the dog loves attention and is very active, unlike other lap dogs.
Maltipoo
Another poodle mix, the Maltipoo has become one of the most fashionable dog breeds, thanks to their association with celebrities like Ellen Degeneres, Jessica Simpson, Blake Lively and Vanessa Hudgens. Affectionate and playful, the Maltipoo brings together the cuddly side of Maltese dogs, with the hypoallergenic qualities of the poodle.
Shih Tzu

Miniature Schnauzer
Katherine Heigl, Claire Danes and Rob Lowe are among the celebrities attracted by the Miniature Schnauzer, one of the most fashionable dog breeds. With a big personality, these friendly and intelligent dogs need a lot of grooming. They’re also very playful and energetic, so they can get destructive when they’re ignored.
Dachshund
Mary-Kate Olsen, Dita von Teese, Josh Duhamel, and Adele all love dachshunds, a dog that’s been in the top 10 US breeds for a long time. With many different coats and colors, Dachshunds are also one of the most intelligent breeds, which sometimes makes them stubborn.
Pomsky
One of the cutest hybrids, despite not being a hit with many celebrities, the Pomsky is one of the most fashionable dog breeds.
