Interesting as there were over 44,000 labradors registered with the KC last year far more than any other breed :smt017 :smt009

Which begs the question were did that result come from ?

I always thought it was the other way around

I never see it as a positive when a breed becomes highly popular

The result came from a survey by the PDSA which I read in 'your dog' magazne. That's weird that there were more labs registered with KC but presumably there is a lot of non-KC breeding going on??

here's the list:

1. Staffordshire Bull Terrier
2. Yorkshire Terrier
3. German Sheperd Dog
4. Jack Russell Terrier
5. Rottweiler
6.Border Collie
7. Labrador
8. Boxer
9. West Highland White Terrier
10. Shih Tzu
