I think it's hard to say "Canines" as a whole because they're so varied but definitely certain types of canines - Foxes, Wolves, German Shepherds, Huskies, Labs, mutts and crosses/hybrids thereof are rather cliché. But it kind of makes sense that so many people would feel drawn/connected to them since humans and dogs have been intimately linked in their respective evolutions for over 30k years and perhaps beyond. And they share some common behavioural characteristics with homnids (a lot actually), so it becomes quite easy to anthropomorphise. The wolf has that added mystique present in many human cultures.
Among two of the possible animals I considered for my fursona were a Vizsla (extremely uncommon) and a Doberman (a little more common but it seems to me most I saw were males, in the past anyway).
That being said, when I first began lurking the community and looking up certain species/types/breeds... it seemed to me like every single husky I saw was a gay male. Gay husky (x2 bonus points if he is blue-based) is definitely a cliché.
Other cliché I've noticed... knots/canine penises on completely unrelated species???
