Razas de Perros
En el mundo existen dos grandes asociaciones a nivel mundial que clasifican las razas de perros:
American Kennel Club (AKC) En Estados Unidos Fdration Cynologique Internationale (FCI) En Blgica
Existen otras asociaciones es posible mencionar las siguientes: UKC (United Kennel Club), CKC (Canadian Kennel Club), ANKC (Australian National Kennel Club), NZKC (New Zealand Kennel Club). Cada pas se rige por una asociacin en particular y cada asociacin clasifica y reconoce las distintas razas de perros. As por ejemplo la AKC reconoce a algo ms de un centenar de razas, mientras que la FCI (a la que pertenecen casi todos los pases europeos y latinoamericanos) reconoce ms de 350 razas diferentes.
Clasificacin de la AKC
Divide las razas en siete grupos: Grupo 1: Sporting group: Naturalmente activos y alertas, los perros de deportes constituyen compaeros agradables y adecuadamente balanciados, con caractersticas deseables. Los miembros de este grupo incluyen pointers, retrievers, setters and spaniels. Admirables por sus instintos en el agua y en los bosques, muchos de estas razas continan participando en caceras y otras actividades de campo. Los dueos potenciales de los perros de deportes necesitan darse cuenta que la mayora d ellos requieren ejercicios vigorizantes en forma regular.

Grupo 2: Hound group: La mayora de los cazadores comparten un rastro ancestral comn de ser usados para la caza. Algunos utilizan su agudo sentido del olfato para seguir rastros. Otros demuestran un fenomenal talento de Resistencia mientras corren sin descanso hasta el fondo de una cantera. Ms all de esto, sin embargo, las generalizaciones sobre los cazadores son difciles de realizar, debido a que el grupo comprende un muy diverso lote, incluyendo Pharaoh Hounds, Norwegian Elkhounds, Afghans and Beagles, entre otros. Algunos cazadores comparten una distintiva habilidad para producir una sonido nico conocido como aullido. Ser mejor que escuche una muestra de este sonido antes de decidir obtener un cazador como mascota para estar seguros que es le perro que amolda a su estilo.

Grupo 3: Working group: Los perros del grupo de trabajo fueron criados para desempearse en trabajos como cuidar la propiedad, tirar trineos y realizar rescates acuticos. Han sido activos invaluables para el hombre a travs de los aos. El Doberman Pinscher, Siberian Husky and Great Dane estn incluidos en este grupo, para mencionar s{olo algunos. Rpidos para aprender, estos inteligentes y capaces animales constituyen compaeros slidos. Sus considerables dimensiones y absoluta fuerza, sin embargo, hacen que muchos perros de trabajos sean inadecuados como mascotas para las familias promedio. Y nuevamente, slo por la virtud de su tamao, estos perros beben ser apropiadamente entrenados.

Grupo 4: Terrier
People familiar with this Group invariably comment on the distinctive terrier personality. These are feisty, energetic dogs whose sizes range from fairly small, as in the Norfolk, Cairn or West Highland White Terrier, to the grand Airedale Terrier. Terriers typically have little tolerance for other animals, including other dogs. Their ancestors were bred to hunt and kill vermin. Many continue to project the attitude that they're always eager for a spirited argument. Most terriers have wiry coats that require special grooming known as stripping in order to maintain a characteristic appearance. In general, they make engaging pets, but require owners with the determination to match their dogs' lively characters.

Grupo 5: Toy group Toy Group The diminutive size and winsome expressions of Toy dogs illustrate the main function of this Group: to embody sheer delight. Don't let their tiny stature fool you, though - - many Toys are tough as nails. If you haven't yet experienced the barking of an angry Chihuahua, for example, well, just wait. Toy dogs will always be popular with city dwellers and people without much living space. They make ideal apartment dogs and terrific lap warmers on nippy nights. (Incidentally, small breeds may be found in every Group, not just the Toy Group. We advise everyone to seriously consider getting a small breed, when appropriate, if for no other reason than to minimize some of the problems inherent in canines such as shedding, creating messes and cost of care. And training aside, it's still easier to control a ten-pound dog than it is one ten times that size.)

Grupo 6: Non-sporting group Non-Sporting Group Non-sporting dogs are a diverse group. Here are sturdy animals with as different personalities and appearances as the Chow Chow, Dalmatian, French Bulldog, and Keeshond. Talk about differences in size, coat, and visage! Some, like the Schipperke and Tibetan Spaniel are uncommon sights in the average neighborhood. Others, however, like the Poodle and Lhasa Apso, have quite a large following. The breeds in the NonSporting Group are a varied collection in terms of size, coat, personality and overall appearance.

Grupo 7: Herrding group Herding Group The Herding Group, created in 1983, is the newest AKC classification; its members were formerly members of the Working Group. All breeds share the fabulous ability to control the movement of other animals. A remarkable example is the low-set Corgi, perhaps one foot tall at the shoulders, that can drive a herd of cows many times its size to pasture by leaping and nipping at their heels. The vast majority of Herding dogs, as household pets, never cross paths with a farm animal. Nevertheless, pure instinct prompts many of these dogs to gently herd their owners, especially the children of the family. In general, these intelligent dogs make excellent companions and respond beautifully to training exercises.

Authorities acknowledge that throughout the world there are several hundred distinct breeds of purebred dogs, not all of which are AKC recognized breeds. Those officially recognized for AKC registration appear in the Stud Book of the American Kennel Club. The AKC provides for a regular path of development for a new breed, which may result in that breeds full recognition and appearance in the official Stud Book as an AKC recognized breed. Briefly stated, the requirement for admission to the Stud Book is clear and categorical proof that a substantial, sustained nationwide interest and activity in the breed exists. This includes an active parent club, with serious and expanding breeding activity over a wide geographic area. When in the judgment of the Board of Directors such interest and activity exists, a breed is admitted to the Miscellaneous Class. Breeds in the Miscellaneous Class may compete and earn titles in Companion Events and also select Performance Events. Miscellaneous breeds are also eligible to compete in Junior Showmanship. They may also compete at conformation shows, but here are limited to competition in the Miscellaneous Class and are not eligible for championship points. When the Board of Directors is satisfied that a breed is continuing a healthy, dynamic growth in the Miscellaneous Class, it may be admitted to registration in the Stud Book and the opportunity to compete in regular classes.
