The Sheepdogs and Cattle Dogs Group is a designation used only by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale for a group of dog breeds consisting of Sheepdogs and Cattle dogs, except for Swiss Cattle Dogs.

Contents

The Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI) additionally divides groups into subgroups, which the other main English-speaking kennel clubs do not. The FCI Sheepdogs and Cattle Dogs Group is made up of two different sections:

  • Section 1 : Sheepdogs
  • Section 2 : Cattle Dogs (except Swiss Cattle Dogs)
  • The FCI sorts the breeds in the group by section and country of origin as follows:
