Thank you, Grete. I was wondering how other European countries were faring.

American (AKC) OES numbers, last 10 years (every year the past 3 years we've seen a roughly 50% reduction from 10 years previously, i.e, decline has been pretty steady overall):

Year Litters Dogs
2011 275 719
2010 327 784
2009 348 895
2008 398 1024
2007 455 1206
2006 518 1403
2005 539 1460
2004 558 1494
2003 545 1466
2002 540 1501

As you can see, the declines were steady, but not quite so dramatic 2002-2006 (2-4%). Starting in 2007 we went to double digit percentage declines (12-15%), except for last year, when it was "only" 8 %.

I know Lorraine has Australian numbers.
