Dear readers,

2011 has just come to an end; it’s now time for statistics and assessments of all kinds. Allow me to dwell upon the special attention the FCI pays to its national canine organisations as well as to breeders, exhibitors and other sports competition enthusiasts (hunting, utility, Sighthounds races, etc.).

Needless to say these figures show that the cynological world remains intensely active within the FCI member countries despite the tough and sullen times our economic and social spheres are having these days.

First cheering result: in 2011, the number of CACIB shows has reached as much as 870, compared to 821 two years ago.

Hungarian Kennel Club: Small country – big history

The Hungarian Kennel Club was established in 1899. During our long history we proved to the doggy world that our country can represent steady number of breeders known and acknowledged worldwide.

We always take part in the flow of international events. Hungary hosted the very first FCI World Dog Show and International Greyhound race in 1971.

The FCI General Committee had many worldwide known Hungarian board members like Dr Tibor Bródy and Dr Pál Sárkány, who was the President of the FCI. Currently, Dr Tamás Jakkel has the opportunity to work on the high level of cynologycal politics.
