Default Why is the Boston Terrier under the non-sporting dog group and not under the Terrier

I was wondering why the Boston Terrier is placed under the non-sporting dog group when its name suggests that it is a terrier. How did this come to be? What is the history behind this dog breed.

Ask the American Kennel Club or AKC.
