Random question (sorry for the hijack) Why is it, that boston terriers and tibetan terriers are in group 7 (non-sporting) and not group 2 (terriers)? :hug:

:rofl: group 7 sure makes for a varied lineup though :rofl:

correct me if I'm wrong but the breed groupings can/do differ slightly from country to country yes?

Yes FCI have approx 10 grps.

Other countries have pastoral & working(herding).

Bosten Terries & Tibetan Terriers arent terriers,just like australian silky terrier.

For example in the US toy poodles & shih tzu are in the toy grp.

Great Danes are in Non Sporting in Australia but in Working in US and UK - their original 'purpose' was boar hunting.

They do not belong in non-sporting - they look out of place especially in the BP and Puppy classes and are certainly under-represented in Class in Group winners.
