1. The true #1 dog breed in the US...

And probably the world:

Mutt!

2. Oh of course.

This was the list of top AKC registered breeds. I don't think anyone keeps track of the number of lovable "mutts" out there.

3. Goldens are still my number 1 choice.

4. I love Goldens, too.

They are so lovable and sweet-tempered (compared to my cranky corgis!) I just can't manage a big dog anymore.

5. My heart wants what my heart wants.

I plan to adopt an adult Golden when it's the right time. My current home is small but the chocolate lab I rescued 5 years ago manages to stay out from underfoot most of the time. I've only fallen over her a few times since we had to downsize. I would rather get rid of furniture than my pets.

6. I've never had a dog that was on any top 10 list.

7. That's okay

Doxies prefer to keep a low profile.

9. LOL

So true, so true!

8. We have five English bulldogs which are #4

in the top 10 and one French bulldog. My son is a breeder and sometimes there are 9 or more bulldog puppies when there is a litter. And believe me, you do not want a Frenchie as they are the hardest and most stubborn dogs to housebreak. I have had two of the top #10 dogs, Rottweilers, which are the best dogs ever. Unfortunately, they are in doggie heaven now.

10. I love English bulldogs. I think Frenchies are kind of a "fashion" statement now, unfortunately.

Rottweilers are excellent dogs. I was always impressed with their intelligence and trainability. Unfortunately they sometimes attract owners who don't know how to train them properly. I'm surprised they are still in the top 10. I rarely see them anymore.
