| Publisher Description: Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Ever-loyal companions and family members, the domesticated canine traces his decendency to the grey wolf. Dogs have many roles in society including working dogs, herders, lap dogs, police dogs or the eyes for the visually-impaired. Dogs vary significantly from breed to breed, in size, coloring, temperament and intelligence. Sit, stay, and read all about the dogs known as the sporting breed. Purebred dogs are classified by different national and international registries. The largest in the United States is the American Kennel Club (AKC.) The AKC registers dogs based on their purebred pedigrees. This book classifies sporting breeds by the AKC guidelines. Included are the Chesapeake Bay Retriever, Boykin Spaniel, Irish Setter, Labrador Retriever, plus many more.
