	I think number 2 should be acceptable without having to pluralize it, as the other ones don't need it.

	The American Kennel Club hates mutts.

	I'm surprised collies didn't make the list. Poor Lassie's a has been.

	apparently some dogs aren't a dog unless they're pluralized....

	German Shepherd should be excepted without "dog" on the end...

	One time we successfully crossbred a Bulldog with a Shih Tzu. We called it a "bullsh!t"!

	I typed dachsund and it wasn't accepted without the final -s, but other singular names were.

	davidr:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 10:01 GMT		6 points
	@Lilybert: It's now accepted as a singular but you do need to spell it correctly — dachshund. Easier to spell if you remember that `Hund' is German for `dog'.

	I finally got a full score! Looks like every..er...dog does have its day.

	I spelled dachshund wrong, too. Always forget that silly h!

	interesting there arent any staffordshire bull terriers. they seem all to common in london. maybe they are up there under a different name. great quiz though. kept me entertained for ages. still waiting for more rugby quizzes though

	A quiz for the most popular breeds of cats next?

	Tim Allen:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 13:42 GMT		4 points
	I didn't even try dachshund. I just use its other, more common name.

	Scott:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 14:40 GMT		-2 points
	I got #1. Of course I have a chocolate lab so that probably helped.

	ChipTaco:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 15:26 GMT		4 points
	@jack - Staffordshire Bull Terriers are #76 on the US list.

	boston bully:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 16:01 GMT		5 points
	Pit bulls are the best dogs, I have had pitts my whole life and they are great loving dogs, sadly you have a-holes that train them to be mean and a-holes that believe everything on the news...sad so sad

	Kicking222:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 17:13 GMT		2 points
	Why do you have to type in "Siberian huskies" to get that one? Why is the singular form insufficient?

	DanRoc:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 17:43 GMT		0 points
	I'm wondering about that Scooby Doo being a Great Dane one up above - I thought Marmaduke was a Great Dane?

	newniki:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 17:44 GMT		4 points
	@kicking222- Just plain ol' "Husky" worked for me.

	newniki:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 17:46 GMT		3 points
	@boston bully. I couldn't agree with you more. Unfortunatly many breeds are stigmatised purely because of ignorant and neglectful owners :(

	snoozyJ:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 18:05 GMT		3 points
	i truly think that if owners told people they had a "Staffordshire Bull Terier" instead of a "pitbull" the stigma would go away considerably, despite the Michael Vicks of the world. Aren't they called nanny dogs in the UK? It's all about marketing.

	I am definitely noticing a canine bias on this site. There are now two dog categories, but none for cats. This quiz was fun but I have to ask, where is the cat breed quiz?

	I'm just not a dog person. I got only about 3.

	sheepdogs should really work for shetland sheepdogs

	Annie:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 20:48 GMT		2 points
	One of the best quizzes in a very long time.

	Lindsay:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 21:21 GMT		4 points
	@Tony - Shelties are most definitely the same as Shetland Sheepdogs. I'm not sure what breed you're mixing them up with.

	Jaspers:	Feb 3rd, 2009 at 23:17 GMT		8 points
	I love how Wiener Dog is accepted.

	Fnnkybutt:	Feb 4th, 2009 at 12:32 GMT		4 points
	@seth - there are other kinds of sheepdogs, so it makes sense to be specific as to which one you're talking about.

	Ellen:	Feb 5th, 2009 at 19:53 GMT		0 points
	Totally Fool Proof! Love It! Accepts weiner dohg (after maybe cheating and looking at comments) ****zu . When writing "LAB" labrador came up. Didnt accept chicuacua! My attempt at "Chihuahua"

	Liberal:	Feb 7th, 2009 at 04:56 GMT		3 points
	It also accepts hot dog for weiner dog.

	Kathryn:	Mar 30th, 2009 at 15:44 GMT		-3 points
	I LOVE dogs so I loved this quiz. Although I wish the Kennel Club would acknowledge mixed breeds--in my opinion, they're the sweetest types of dogs!

	GoonerLover66:	Apr 6th, 2009 at 12:21 GMT		1 point
	I tried Golden Retrievers, any reason why it's not an acceptable answer for 4?

	Sparky:	Apr 16th, 2009 at 15:23 GMT		1 point
	I'm really surprised that jack russell terrier didn't make it on the list. My dog's number 4 though so I'm happy ^_^

	@DanRoc Marmaduke is a great dane, and so is scooby
