FCI Spitz and Primitive Types Group

The Spitz and Primitive Types Group is a designation used only by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale for a group of dog breeds consisting of Spitz Type Dogs and Primitive Type Dogs.

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

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

Section 1 : Nordic Sledge Dogs

Section 2 : Nordic Hunting Dogs

Section 3 : Nordic Watchdogs and Herding Dogs

Section 4 : European Spitz

Section 6 : Primitive Types

Section 7 : Primitive Types - Hunting Dogs

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.
