Learning about the different classes of small dogs can help focus the selection process for a new dog. The AKC (American Kennel Club), which is the principle breed registry in the US, divides dog breeds into 7 categories, with the addition of the miscellaneous category. The category] is for those breeds who are in the process of becoming AKC registered, but are yet tobe recognized as official breeds due to some requirements for membership having not yet been met.
The seven types of American Kennel Club recognized dog breeds are:
- Â sporting
- Â hound
- Â working
- Â terrier
- Â toy
- Â non-sporting
- Â herding
Most of the small dog breeds are in the toy category, but there are also a lot in the terrier group, and some in the herding, sporting, hound, and non-sporting groups. There are no official American Kennel Club recognized small dogs in the working class.
What Do These Classes Mean?
The dogs in most groups share some defining common characteristics. Some are in these groups because of particular talents like a great herding or hunting ability, (in the herding and hound groups). Others are there because of their size (toy dogs), or ancestry (terriers). The sporting and working dogs are a bit like the medley racers in Olympic swimming – they are all-rounders, either at doggy sports, or excelling in the many skills working dogs need. The non-sporting group don’t seem to have much at all in common however. This is the most diverse group of dog breeds.
Breed Types
Sporting Dogs
Sporting dogs are good at hunting, although they make excellent pets to the right owners. Sporting dogs were bred to hunt all types of small game, including birds, and they can hunt either on land or in the water. This group covers twenty-seven breeds, including the English cocker spaniel dog breed, a type of small spaniel. There are other larger spaniels in here as well, plus retrievers, setters, and pointers. Sporting dogs are very alert, and do need exercise on a regular basis.
Hound Dogs
Dogs in the hound dog classification have historically helped humans in the hunt. And they were bred to take advantage of particular talents each breed had. Some hounds use sight, others speed or smell, to track their prey. There are twenty-three breeds in this group, which includes 3 small dog breeds – the whippet, basenji, and dachshund.
Working Dogs
Working dogs can be kept as pets, but the reason they are called working dogs is because they provide some function for people, whether it be herding livestock, as a guide dog, or part of a paid entertainment act.
The AKC uses the definition another way. It puts breeds in the working dog category when they have been bred to perform a task which can’t be properly categorized in one of the other existing categories. There aren’t any small dog breeds in this category.

Because of cross-breeding there are dozens of different Dachshund varieties. But they fall into just a few broad categories. The AKC recognizes three coat varieties and two sizes.
Size
Standard-size Dachshunds (the type most often seen in ads or commercials) are about 9 inches high at the withers (the top point of the shoulder blades). These are the classic ‘weiner dog’ with long bodies, short legs and stout chests. Weight runs anywhere from 10-30 lbs. Anything larger is either a mixed breed or an obese dog.
Miniature Dachshunds are becoming even more common in an already popular breed. They may be as light as about 8 lbs but are typically around 10 lbs. They are correspondingly shorter than the Standard, about 5 inches high at the withers.
Coat
The Smooth-Coat is the original type and the most common in mo
vies. They’re often reddish-brown, but darker colors like chocolate exist in large numbers. Less common are Smooth-Coats that are dappled (spotted) or brindled (striped). That type shows up more often as a Wire-Haired or Long-Haired variety.
Wire-Haired dogs almost resemble a cross between the stereotypical Doxie and a Schnauzer or terrier. They have long muzzle hair and furry chests. The coloring is also more terrier-like, often a blue-gray mixed with tan.
The Long-Haired is especially beautiful, sporting a long, silky coat, similar to a Cocker Spaniel. Colors can vary but reddish and black, sometimes mixed with a little white, is fairly standard. That long hair is also found on the back of the rear legs and the tail, somewhat like Goldens.
An offshoot is the Piebald, a white pattern superimposed on a background color, such as red or brown.
Apart from color, the different types shed at different rates.
Not surprisingly, Smooth-Coats shed less (but less does not mean ‘not at all’). They also have a particular odor that is not found in other breeds. Without regular bathing that odor can become pronounced and some owners find it annoying.
Long-Hairs, as one might expect, shed the most and require the most grooming attention to keep out mats.
Wire-Coats are in between the two extremes, but they do require regular care. Their long muzzle hair can be a particular problem, made more difficult than usual by the dog’s short legs.
Eyes
While darker eye color dominates, those with modified coats can have amber or green eyes. Double Dapple types (a special genetic variation) often have very light blue eyes. Birth defects are more common in this type, though, and some are born blind or without fully developed eyes.
Thanks to the large geographical dispersion and popularity of the breed, Dachshunds of the basic types have evolved to dozens of sub-types. Smooth-coat dappled gray Doxies are not hard to find, nor are Long-Haired black and white ones. Yet all have the same lively disposition that makes Dachshunds one of the most popular breeds worldwide.
