FCI Scenthound Group

The Scenthound Group is a designation used only by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale for a group of dog breeds consisting entirely of Scenthounds.

The Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI) additionally divides groups into subgroups, which the other main English-speaking kennel clubs do not. The FCI Scenthound Group is made up of three different sections.

The FCI sorts the breeds in the group by section and country of origin as follows:

Section 1 : Scenthounds

Section 1.1 : Large Hounds

Section 1.2 : Medium Hounds

Section 1.3 : Small Hounds

Section 2 : Leash Hounds

Section 3 : Related Breeds

Breeds Provisionally Accepted

These breeds are not eligible for the CACIB in international dog shows and the FCI lists them separately under the section "Breeds Provisionally Accepted".[1] After having been long enough in the list, they will be qualified for the CACIB and removed to the corresponding group list.

Section 1.2: Medium-sized Hounds
