By Fran Black There are seven types of dog classifications. One of the seven types of dogs is a Terrier. Dogs classified as Terriers are small dogs and are pest killing dogs. Terriers were originally trained to discover and kill rodents. Terriers are argumentative and are not usually a stranger's best friend.
Terriers are intelligent and show well. One of the most popular types of Terriers is a Jack Russel. Jack Russels are a small crossbreed. Jack Russles tend to be quite noisy and bouncy. Terriers adapt well to all places living comfortably in a farmhouse or in an apartment.
Another type of dog is the Hound. Hound dog are typically hunting dogs. The sight-hunting dogs include: Greyhounds, Afghan Hounds, Borzoi, and Deerhound, all hunt using their sight. The Beagle, Bloodhounds and Bassets hunt with their noses to the ground, using their sense of smell to hunt their prey.
Hounds tend to focus intently on the "target", which makes it more difficult for their owners to call them off their task. Also most Hounds have very loud barks which cause a raucous.
Sporting dogs are another classification and they help their owners find and retrieve less fortunate animals and creatures. The group of sporting dogs includes: setters and pointers. They will often indicate where feathered game is located and retrieve shot game.
General characteristics of sporting dogs include: kindness, quietness and gentleness. Most sporting dogs dislike cities and prefer rural areas like farms.
