    Breed Standards 

    192g09.jpgThere are numerous breed standards.

    The basis of breed/conformation shows is the judging of pedigree dogs against the 'Breed Standard', which is a picture in words that describes the range of features that are deemed appropriate for the breed.

    Two of the major international standards are:

    The American Kennel Club (F.C.I.'s Standard applies - FSS breed)

    FCI (Federation Cynologique Internationale)
