Right, Hunting.. sorry. When the USDA folks talk about it, they continually say "working," so it's 'probably' those dogs that are bred for a purpose 'like' hunting, herding, SAR, etc., but I would ask if I were breeder of those dogs. Yes, the count of dogs is premise based. The question of multiple species is being pursued. Hopefully, that will be cleared up.
