JENNY TAFT: The sixth group to take the ring at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show presented by Purina Pro Plan is the Working Group. Working Group breeds were bred to guard property, pull sleds, and perform water rescues. They also serve with police, military, and as service dogs.

Notable Working Group breeds include the Alaskan Malamute, Bernese Mountain Dog, Boxer, Doberman Pinscher, Great Dane, Mastiff, Newfoundland, Rottweiler, and Siberian Husky.

The Working Group has provided 15 Best in Show champions. The winningest breed is the Boxer, who has won the Working Group 23 times since joining in 1936.
