The are probably many we haven't discovered yet. However currently there are five known dwarf planets.

How come there is all this trouble over Pluto being a planet or dwarf planet when they are all just planets any way?

Because for years it was thought that there were 9 planets, which included Pluto. But, in recent years it has been discovered that there are other, smaller, dwalf or minor planets which lay beyond the orbit of Pluto. Some of these dwalf planets are as big or even possibly bigger than Pluto. So, a decision had to be reached to either downgrade Pluto to the status of a dwalf or minor planet or include all of these other objects (and nobody knows precisely how many there are) into the main system of planets. If they were all included allthe minor planets into the major system of planets they would all need to be named, so the decision was taken to downgrade Pluto to simplify matters. So now there are only 8 major planets and many more, mostly un-named and undiscovered minor or dwalf planets.
