How many pedigree dog breeds are there




















A Kennel Club is a club of clubs. They organise together with the breed specific clubs and help unite standards, and hold competitions! They record the pedigrees of dog breeds, keep logs and data on registration of breeders and of litters as well as for the competitions they hold. They become the custodians of the breeds they accept and govern and guide towards the best these dogs can be by governing breed standard and helping each breed towards their pinnacle based on the breed description and purpose.

We humans have long since domesticated animals, and as part of that domestication, we began to breed them for certain qualities. This process? Is called selective breeding. These dogs are built to be alert, active and loveable. They were originally a group of dog breeds bred for hunting and retrieving typically, but they are known people-pleasers too which typically makes them fantastic companions and very popular modern dogs!

Hounds are the true hunting dog, usually graced with stamina and a huge prey drive. These dogs are often driven by one or more senses such as smell or sight and will come with a natural predelection towards the hunt that can rarely be overcome. This needs harnessing, typically, and focusing into something constructive to make them functioning household woofs.

Some of the worlds most intelligent dogs are in this group. They are watchdogs, sled dogs, guard dogs and more. Working dogs love a job, and have been bred to naturally assist us less capable humans by availing of their natural strength or keen senses. These are often large dog breeds.

This one was split in from the working group to better distinguish these natural herders from their more diverse compatriates. These dogs have a natural ability to coral other animals, and sometimes even protect!

This has led to a number of breeds who were part of the modern atrophy of original bred purpose, to be repurposed as police or military dogs. These smart and agile dogs are wonderful — if correctly challenged. These dogs are ratters! These small little woofs are cute, affectionate and sociable by nature. They are there to be both companion and lap-warmer!

These dogs thrive making them some of the best adapted dogs for modern living. This is kind of the catch-all group — the one that covers all the other dogs for all the other purposes that have been created. Consequently, these are the most varied group having little that ties them together with others, other than their differences. But we celebrate their difference! The list goes on, and on, each breed offering something slightly different, a different coat, a different ability or skill to the point that we have Norweigian Lundehunds who can literally climb cliffs to get to puffin nests — yep.
