  • New Proposed AKC Group from Realignment Committee- Group 10
    AKC Group Realignment December, 2011 The American Kennel Club is proposing group realignment and expanding the number of conformation groups from the current 7 to 11. If you would like to read the list of groups and the dogs proposed to go into those groups you can find it at this link: http://www.cspca.com/Realignment/Suggested%20Breed%20List.pdf The Realignment Committee has placed the Chinese Shar-Pei in the Working Spitz group; however we can let AKC know if we had rather be in some other group. Dogs are placed in groups according to common features, traits, skills, natural instincts, ancestry etc. If the Group Realignment passes, then whichever group we end up in will be the group that we will stay in for a long time to come. It is very important that we choose wisely as to what is in the best interest of our breed. It would also be wise to consider what is to be gained by moving from our current group. What do we stand to lose by moving to a new group? We should only move to a new group in order to improve our breed and not for anyone’s personal gain. I have made a photo chart of the different groups that have been proposed by people for our breed. Please study the groups carefully before you vote on the group that you feel would best represent our breed New Proposed AKC Group from Realignment Committee- Group 10: Non-Sporting The breeds in the Non-Sporting Group are a varied collection in terms of size, coat, personality and overall appearance.

The denser the undercoat, the fluffier the dog appears. The protective guard hairs of the coat are designed to repel moisture and shed dirt. Twice a year double coated dogs will "blow coat." This is when they shed most of their undercoat and the remaining guard hairs may become dry and brittle looking. It may take up to three weeks for a dog to fully blow their coat. This is the time that most mats are formed if dead hairs are allowed to remain without regularly being brushed out.
