Dual champions are dogs that show excellence in both breed standard and ability to perform the function for that breed. Out of those 141 dogs, one was awarded to a dog in the toy class and 3 to dogs in the herding breeds. The remaining Dual Championships were awarded to dogs in the sporting breeds and the hound breeds. There were 93 more Dual Championships awarded to dogs in the hound breeds than the sporting breeds.
