For me, it would be a Labrador or a Golden Retriever but it all depends on the behavior/features you want.
The Border Collie was recognized by the American Kennel Club (AKC) in 1995.
Puppies stop the majority of their growing once they reach about one year old. They continue to grow until they are about 2 years old, but at a much slower pace. After two years old, they fill out and gain more muscle mass.

I'm not necessarily finding the numbers easily about how many Labrador Retrievers were registered with the American Kennel Club.The information I can find is:The Kennel Club of the United Kingdom states that for 2006, there were 45,700 registered Labrador Retrievers. The Cocker Spaniel came in second, with 20,459 registered in 2006.I also found thatFor the 18th consecutive year, the Labrador Retriever is the most popular purebred dog in America, according to 2008 registration statistics released today by the American Kennel Club® (AKC) But, while more than twice as many Labs were registered last year than any other breed making it a likely leader for many years to come... information accessed 24 Oct 2009 "Labrador Retriever Holds Firm in Top Spot on AKC's List of Most Popular Dogs in America;..."http://www.akc.org/news/index.cfm?article_id=3709According to a July 2003 article in the AKC Gazette:Once again the Labrador Retriever has been the most popular breed of dog registered in the United States accounting for 154,616 of the total 958,503 number of dogs registered with The American Kennel Club in 2002.http://www.thelabradorclub.com/subpages/show_contents.php?page=AKC+GazetteThis is the best I can do at this time.

Labrador Retrievers were bred to retrieve from mainly the water, Golden Retrievers were bred to retrieve mainly upland birds. Personality wise, the Golden is typically calmer sooner, usually by about 1 year verses the Labrador which will typically be hyper until 2-3 years of age.
It depends on the size of the litters they have. A female can be bred twice a year, or about every six months. Many breeds have litters of around six puppies but there are times where they will have a litter with as many as 12 or 15 puppies which could mean as many as 30 puppies in one year! Depending on the breed and health of the dog it varies, but the average is 9.
Wolves can only have puppies once a year in the spring. They usually have around 8 puppies, but over half will die before reaching adulthood. True high content wolfdogs only have puppies once a year in spring, just like pure wolves, as well.
Every year!
