Next, when I meant they "do not count", I mean that they do not take follower slot. Dog do not take the follower slot. See for yourself. Also, there are other followers that do not take follower slot including Arronax and Bane of Kree. Which concludes that you haven't finish the game yet.
Which concludes wrongly, then. I've played through twice, as an evil female Elven spellcaster, and a good male Dwarven techno-type. But I never focused on the "underlying math" questions, like how many followers you could max to at a time. I was more concerned with details of good/evilness plot derivations, etc.

What else would you like to know?

You're a fine resource to have in this category, @Al. I hope you'll think of some topics to open about the game that might be interesting to discuss. Just don't think your knowing something that something else doesn't about Arcanum makes them automatically ignorant and you all-wise. Life doesn't work out that way, not even for Bill Gates.
