I’ll confess right off the bat, my favorite is the Lab. Now you know. I suppose that’s technically Confession #2. But I honestly do love all dogs, generally favor large over small when given the choice though there are a couple of little ladies out there that have captured my heart. Ginger Spice, I’m talking ’bout you!

I thought it would be interesting to see where my preferences line up with yours, and the rest of the population. I’m anxiously awaiting your votes. In the meantime, here are the official stats as captured by the 2007 AKC Dog Registration Statistics:

1. Retrievers (Labrador)
2. Yorkshire Terriers
3. German Shepherd Dogs
4. Retrievers (Golden)
5. Beagles
6. Boxers
7. Dachshunds
8. Poodles
9. ShihTzu
10. Bulldogs

Labs have been tops on the list for the last several years – I’m so proud. My mom will be amused to see that Weiner dogs and poodles are in the top 10 – Mr. Johnson & Miss Belle are representin!

Are your dogs on the list? :-)
