At the top of this season's Japanese Terrier standings: Ozaki Farm Jp's Genji, clocked at 20.27 mph — the 100-yard dash in 10.09 seconds, chasing last year's 22.77 mph best — a Japanese Terrier mainstay, in the top five again for the 4th time, narrowly ahead of Taiga's Embracing A Starlit Fate (0.36 mph). Two Japanese Terriers have posted ranked runs so far. Line the breeds up by their fastest dog and the Japanese Terrier lands 227th out of 251. The top 2 are averaging 20.1 mph, and with the season running through 2027, these standings can still shift.
