The AKC keeps adding breeds. And even though it split the Working into two groups in my lifetime, that was a long time ago. So, of course, every group is gaining breeds. That includes the Hound group, which at one time seemed on the cusp of being split into Sight and Scenthounds, but as everything became a complicated mess in the abandoned group realignment project, in the end it all just stayed the same. Except—more breeds keep coming.

Currently, AKC’s Miscellaneous and Foundation Stock Service (FSS) groups include 18 breeds destined for the Hound group:

• American Leopard Hound •

• Basset Fauve de Bretagne •

• Bavarian Mountain Scent Hound •

• Carolina Dog •

• Drever •

• Hamiltonstovare •
