Of course they are. They aren't cloistered from the information so
readily available. The decision about what is or is not a breed is in
the end arbitrary. AKC is fully aware that breeding certain breeds can
technically produce a puppy of another "breed" e.g. the Belgian Shepherd.
In FCI it is one breed, four varieties.

The decision about what is still the same breed is best applied without
hard and fast rules.
