Spanish term

"clasificación de razas de perros"

Spanish to English Social Sciences Livestock / Animal Husbandry
Hi again. I am doing a translation about dogs and it says "la clasificación se hace en función del peso y del tamaño de la raza". How would we say that in English? "the classification" doesn't sound right for me. What do you think?

Thanks a lot

BTW

My translation is based on your query i.e.

Clasificación de razas de perros

If you wanted a translation of your sentence in the context, you should have posted that as your query, FWIW:)

Dog breeds classification

I think classification sounds just fine here. Moreover, by carrying quick search on google, you'll get tons of results.

dogs are classified according to/taking into account weight and size

of the dog breeds.

I'd say it this way.
