Kennel Clubs

Practically every city and town in Russia has a Kennel club or service dog-breeding

club as they known here. The Hunters' Society has sporting dog-breeding sections and lovers of fancy breeds ( декоративные породы) have dog-lovers' societies.

One of the main aims of the service dog-breeding clubs is to breed thoroughbred dogs (чистокровный). Their stock of purebred Alsatian (East European) sheepdogs is of world -wide fame. Experts the world over admire the Caucasian and Central Asian sheepdogs, which have been bred in these regions since ancient times. The husky, or Eskimo dog, has long ceased to be a dog of North alone. It has been exported to Germany, Hungary and Finland. The Russian borzoi (greyhound) ha become a pedigree breed ( nopoдa c родословной). Doberman pinchers that originated in our country have several times won top awards at international shows in Italy and Poland.

Dogs are trained at special centers-kennel clubs. The service dog-breeding clubs have training grounds for these purposes. The Moscow kennel Club, which has 50 000 members, has about 40 training grounds. At the annual dog shows the qualified judges appraise the animals' appearance, their performance, pedigrees and the quality of their young.

Every year thousands of young people take part in combined competitions with service dogs. The dog owners must be physically fit and trained, because they have to participate in the 100-met race and after that in the hurdle race. The combined competitions include capturing a trespasser. Every single dog must be vaccinated against hydrophobia.
