Best Answer

At an AKC conformation show, the dog breeds are divided into seven different groups based on what they were originally bred for. These are the groups and their purposes:

Herding Group - Assist with controlling livestock

Terrier Group - These dogs were bred to "go to ground" and hunt out and kill small vermin and pests.

Hound Group - These dogs tracked down game for hunters using either sight or smell.

Working Group - These dogs were bred for jobs such as protection, guarding, sledding, and rescue.

Toy - These small dogs were bred for companionship

Sporting Group - These assisted hunters by retrieving or finding game.

Non-Sporting Group - A miscellaneous collection on Dog Breeds. Most were originally bred for a purpose that was lost, but the breed survived.
