*Note: dogs of any breed can have congenital deafness, from a variety of causes. Breeds
with white pigmentation are most affected. There are about 340 dog breeds recognized
internationally by the Federation Cynologique
Internationale (FCI), the world governing body of dog breeds, but the standards for
breed recognition vary from country to country. For example, the American Kennel Club
currently only recognizes about half of them, about 187 breeds.
