Herding Group Herding Group is the name of a breed group of dogs, used by kennel clubs to classify a defined collection of dog breeds. It does not refer to one particular type of dog. How the "Herding Group" is defined varies among kennel clubs, and different kennel clubs may not include the same breeds in their "Herding Group". Some kennel clubs do not use the term "Herding Group". The international kennel club association, the Fédération Cynologique Internationale, does not have a "Herding Group", and includes most pastoral dogs in Group 1 "Sheepdogs and Cattle Dogs (except Swiss Cattle Dogs)" and Group 2 "Pinscher and Schnauzer - Molossoid Breeds - Swiss Mountain and Cattle Dogs".
