21. Numbers on a phone keypad (10: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9); legs on *eight* dogs and wheels on *three* taxis.
10+8+3=21.
You said that there was a riddle or twist, I'm just guessing that was it; the answer may be wrong, but has it helped?
EDIT: you might have to add together the following: 9! (1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9), 8x4 (legs on eight dogs) and 3x4+3 (for the steering wheels).

well the riddle or red herring in this quiz is that not all the dogs are 4 legged friends..
one has been involved in an accident (RTA) and has lost his front left leg.
The other had a serious disease and had both back legs
One of the taxis is a 6 wheel drive and last but not least the phone key pad is foreign so you cant work out what the numbers are and what the other button are..

Have you tried using 10 for the number of numbers on a keypad or 45 from adding them together?
Maybe the trick is the taxis are the old chocolate bars so that part is 0?
Hope this helps

10 (if they mean digits and they aren't including 12, 23, 45, 456 etc.)
32
15 (4 tires plus 1 steering wheel?)
= 57 (or 66 if they count all the number combos on the key pad)

54
providing none of the dogs had an amputated limb
or 57 counting the spare tires of the taxis

Well, I got fifty-four,unless you add all the Numbers on the key-pad together first in which case the answer would be ninety-one. if you do count the spare tire then it would be either fifty-five or ninety-two.But I'm not that good at math so don't count on me being right.Good luck.
