    Just a quick hint with the troublesome word "retriever":

    '  "I" before "E", except after "C".  '

    Heh... I don't know much about JSON but that's pretty counter intuitive of the language.

    Also, I don't know why people are giving this question a low rating.  It seems straight forward enough.  Anyone that gave it a low rating care to explain?  I'm always interested in such thing.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.

    This method is slightly different. It is intended to count occurrences of an item within a list. For example, if I needed to count how many times the element "Golden Retriever" appeared in the list, I could execute the following:

    dog_breeds.count("Golden Retriever")
