To directly answer the question, there are about 300 million dogs on earth (as a very rough, lower estimate---it may be as many as 500-800 million), about 25% of which live in "First World" countries like the USA. A good number of American dogs, probably at least half, are well cared for. However, almost every dog in the developing world is not well taken care of. They are generally not thought of in the same way as pets, and besides, if you have no money for your children's care or food for your family, do you think you'll pay to deworm and flea treat your dog? In fact, unvaccinated domestic dogs are responsible for about 50,000 human cases of rabies worldwide every year, almost all of which are in developing countries.
There are no real stats out there that is 100%, but it is proven that in today's modern age more and more people are having pets (dogs are more popular and cats come in second, but just as wonderful a pet) because the human race is something you want to get away from once in awhile. More and more younger people (25 +) are getting dogs. Some people who don't have children or even people whose children have left home replace the emptiness with a dog or two. According to the stats re veterinary care there are a lot of dogs out there and cats are becoming more popular.
