How many pets are in each NJ county?

The more populous counties are well represented — Bergen and Middlesex, the counties with the most people, also have the most pets and so on. St. Hubert’s estimates the total household dog and cat population to be 2,878,037 (1,382,876 dogs and 1,495,161 cats). The list is as follows:
