Exposición Canina Mundial 2016 de la FCI:
İFelicidades Rusia!

Ha habido rumores, habladurías, comentarios, todos ellos negativos, en las redes sociales o a través de emails, sobre la organización de la Exposición Canina Mundial de la FCI en Moscú.

Tras 4 días muy ajetreados, tenemos que admitir que el duro trabajo de la RKF, junto con su voluntad de escuchar las recomendaciones del Grupo Asesor de la FCI, ha dado como resultado una exposición canina excepcional, la cual recordaremos como una competición muy profesional. La RKF ha sabido combinar la profesionalidad, el glamour, la armonía y el ambiente relajado entre los expositores, los jueces, los visitantes y los invitados.

The FCI highlighted the importance of dogs to society with an event in Brussels

BRUSSELS, 1 July 2016 -- The European Section of the FCI (World Canine Federation) hosted on Tuesday 28 June a summer outdoor event dedicated to dogs: dogs helping people, changing society.

The European section of the FCI brings together 51 national kennel clubs all over Europe and is highly engaged in the defence and promotion of pedigree dogs. With this event, the FCI aimed to raise awareness to the importance of dogs to society. A number of Belgian organisations (OS'MOSE, Brussels Police Dog Unit, Activ'Dog, GERCCMA and Fondation I See) made demonstrations about the work they do with dogs (medical assistance, guide dogs, mobility assistance, narcotic detection, police and rescue operations). Participants also heard more about the concept of dog responsible ownership in Europe and existing projects like the CAROdog Platform.

The event photos are available here: https://goo.gl/photos/3XqJ9GHZ9A2BVQjw8

The President of the European section of the FCI, Jørgen Hindse, stated his satisfaction with the initiative: "I am very pleased with this week's event. We had over 15 dogs and 40 people all very engaged and committed to the protection of animals in our society. I would like to thank all the organisations that made excellent interventions and taught us new facts about the vast abilities of dogs and how they can help us in so many different ways."

FCI and ANKC meet at the FCI Headquarters

On the occasion of an FCI Executive Committee meeting, the ANKC President and Vice-President, MM Gent and Parker were invited to travel to the FCI Office and meet with their FCI colleagues. Mr D. Santos, member of the FCI General Committee and President of the FCI Asia and Pacific Section, was also invited to attend.

The discussions were held in a very friendly atmosphere and the main point of the agenda was the future of the ANKC membership within the FCI. Different opinions were expressed, the FCI requirements were clearly explained and the ANKC leaders had the opportunity to comment on the particular situation of ANKC, a kennel club situated on a continent-size island. It was agreed that a final proposal would be drafted and discussed for a final resolution next October. There are high expectations that ANKC will retain its FCI associate membership with specific clauses being included in the membership agreement.
Both parties were very positive and now expect encouraging results.

Dogs helping people, changing society: less than 2 weeks to the FCI event in Brussels

BRUSSELS, 16 June 2016 -- The European Section of the FCI will host on Tuesday 28 June a summer outdoor event dedicated to dogs: dogs helping people, changing society. This is the first ever event organised by the association in Brussels.

The European section of the FCI brings together 51 national kennel clubs all over Europe and is highly engaged in the defence and promotion of pedigree dogs. With this event, the FCI aims to raise awareness to the importance of dogs to society. A number of Belgian organisations will make demonstrations about the work they do with dogs (medical assistance, guide dogs, mobility assistance, narcotic detection, police and rescue operations). Participants will also hear more about the concept of dog responsible ownership in Europe and existing projects like the CAROdog Platform.

The FCI invites all those interested in animal welfare and in dogs in particular to attend to the event together with their dogs. The FCI welcomes the Members of the European Parliament, European Commission's representatives and all associations and organisations working on animal welfare in Brussels.

"At a time where it is not yet clear when the new animal welfare strategy will be published, we thought that an event highlighting the importance of dogs would come in very timely", stated Jørgen Hindse, President of the FCI Europe Section. He shared his enthusiasm with this intiative: "it is the first time the European Section of the FCI organises an event in Brussels. We love dogs and invite all dog lovers to come and join us on 28 June. We are planning interesting presentations and some animations during the event to make it a bit more casual. Fun aside, we do keep our focus which is to push for the inclusion of companion animals in any upcoming European animal welfare strategy. We feel that a lot more can be done in Europe to ensure the health, safety and well-being of our best friends."

Event programme:
• 16:30: Registration and welcome

• 17:00: Introduction by Jørgen Hindse (President of the FCI Europe Section)

Dogs, helping people, changing society

FCI - Federation Cynologique Internationale
15 juin 2016

The FCI General Committee has been particularly attentive to the reactions expressed over the last days regarding the organisation of the 2017 World Dog Show and General Assembly.

We are always eager to protect all FCI members' interests even though this can sometimes generate uncomfortable situations and we are well aware of the unavoidable pros and cons of any decision concerning this matter.

The concerns expressed by the Ukrainian Kennel Union regarding the dates suggested to hold the World Dog Show in Leipzig from 6 to 10 July 2017 are very understandable.

We wish to point out that the FCI Statutes (Art 20.q) and the FCI Show Regulations (Art.3) give the power to the FCI General Committee to make decisions regarding issues related to international, world and section shows.

Indeed, we would like to draw your attention on the fact that the FCI Dog Shows Regulations clearly allow the General Committee to deal with exceptional cases. Therefore, the FCI Dog Shows Regulations finally confirm the power of the General Committee to take a decision in exceptional cases, such as the case at hand (cancellation of the WDS 2017 in Ecuador).

However, out of concern and respect for the huge work already carried out by the Ukrainian Kennel Union, the FCI General Committee has found a solution: the VDH, in a very kind and appreciated gesture, proposed to change the dates of the 2017 World Dog Show to take place now from 9 to 12 November 2017, preceded by the FCI General Assembly on 6-7 November 2017.

We are very happy to announce this solution to a difficult issue and feel confident that you will share our satisfaction.

The General Committee of the FCI always works towards finding solutions which will be favourable to the wellbeing of our Federation. Therefore we are grateful for all the received input from our members concerning this and other issues.

Please note that the present message will be translated to the other FCI languages and sent to you in the next days.

We once again thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

Yours sincerely,

Rafael de Santiago
FCI President

The Working Group for Restructuring the FCI (WGRF), whose first meeting was held in Madrid on January 13th, held its second meeting in Lisbon on 27-28 April, 2016. The working group appointed earlier this year by Rafael de Santiago, the FCI President, went through the points on the agenda of a very productive meeting in the most positive state of mind. FCI’s statutes and Standing Orders were examined and fully discussed, point by point, with the clear intention of modernising them. The last and final meeting of the WGRF is planned in September, aiming at completing the proposal to be submitted to the General Committee. All the members of the group declared themselves very satisfied and proud of the good job done.
