| I do believe this list is based on AKC registrations. That is why the Lab is always #1, since there are so many more pups per litter and if every new owner submits their registration, well they will always be #1. If your furbaby isn't AKC registered then you aren't even counted in the number. The usually have 2 lists, one for # of litters/breed registered and then the other for number of furbabies/breed registered. |

| They are number 19. The scarier thing is that they are #9 on the most popular pet shop puppy list. |
