For the last several years, the most popular breed of dog in the United States has been the Labrador Retriever. An official at a national association of dog breeders concluded that the breed is the most popular only because of the Labrador Retriever's friendly disposition and the ease with which the dogs can be trained.
Which of the following, if true, would cast the most serious doubt on the accuracy of the official's conclusion?
A. The Labrador Retriever is closely related to the Golden Retriever, another popular breed in the United States.
B. Labrador Retrievers have been trained in a number of useful ways, such as to serve as guide dogs or as hunting companions.
C. Some people do not like Labrador Retrievers because they can be quite large as adults and often chew furniture when they are puppies.
D. The Australian Shepard is another friendly and easy to train dog breed, yet it does not have nearly the popularity of the Labrador Retriever.
E. No recent popular television shows have featured a Labrador Retriever.

Answer choice D suggests that even though the cause (friendly and easy to train) is established for the Australian shepherd, the effect (popularity) is not. So the reason for the popularity of the Labrdor retireiver is probably not his friendly disposition and ease of training.

Conclusion: The breed is the most popular only because of the Labrador Retriever's friendly disposition and the ease with which the dogs can be trained.
We need to select an option that cast doubt on this conclusion.
Correct answer is D ✅ as it mentions that although Australian Shepard has similar characteristics it's population is not as much as Labs. So there must be other factors which contributes to popularity of Labs.
