Which specific AKC Group classification is shared by both the Pomeranian and the Yorkshire Terrier?

Answer

Toy Group

Both progenitor breeds of the Yoranian, the Pomeranian and the Yorkshire Terrier, are firmly situated within the American Kennel Club's Toy Group. This shared classification reflects their modern positioning as small-sized companion dogs, often sharing general characteristics relating to size and function in contemporary kennel club structures. The Pomeranian gained recognition in 1900, and the Yorkie in 1878, with both landing in this specific category, which contributes to the Yoranian's typical small stature, usually weighing between 3 and 7 pounds.
