These proud dogs are often confused with the German Shepherd, mostly because they are also used by the military and police. They can focus on moving objects, making them perfect for such work. They were originally bred to be herding dogs. Given this, they are very active dogs that need socialization and obedience training, particularly if you live in an apartment or don’t have a lot of land space. They are great for families especially if you have children they can chase around. This breed can get anywhere from 40 to 80 lbs and live to be around 14 to 16 years old.

Many businesses in Maryland welcome four-legged guests, and there are dog-friendly activities scheduled year-round for the social, energetic doggy of this state. Hit up the beach with your furry family members at Down Park Dog Beach in Pasadena, Quiet Waters Park Dog Beach in Annapolis, or Dog Beach at Matapeake Park in Queen Anne’s County. Since dogs aren’t allowed generally in restaurants or bars in this state, it’s a good idea to stick to pet-friendly neighbourhoods while visiting or spending the day in town. In Baltimore, that includes Mt. Washington, Butcher’s Hill, Charles Village and Locust Point, where residents have access to large yards, dog parks, nature trails and even the odd pet-friendly bar or two.
In 1964 the Chesapeake Bay Retriever was declared the official dog of Maryland.
Most Maryland dog lovers prefer the state dog, as well as Labradors, German Shepherds and Golden Retrievers.
In Baltimore, the American Pit Bull Terrier is the favourite mixed breed!
