Fédération Cynologique Internationale

The Fédération Cynologique Internationale was created on May 22nd, 1911 with the aim to promote and protect cynology and purebred dogs by any means it considers necessary.

The founding nations of the FCI are as follows:

  • Germany (Kartell für das Deutsche Hundewesen and Die Delegierten-Commission)
  • Austria (Osterreichischer Kynologenverband)
  • Belgium (Société Royale Saint-Hubert)
  • France (Société Centrale Canine de France )
  • Netherlands (Raad van Beheer op Kynologisch Gebied in Nederland)

The Federation disappeared due to the first World War and in 1921, the Société Centrale Canine de France and the Société Royale Saint-Hubert re-created it.
The new articles of association were adopted on April 10th, 1921 and on March 5th, 1968, the FCI got the legal personality by decree.

danish terrier club

The Danish Terrier Club is a special club under the Danish Kennel Club. There is close cooperation between these 2 clubs.

We represent 32 fantastic and very different terrier breeds with different sizes, coats, talents, needs, activity level – but all with the commonality that they are big personalities. These are dogs with character.

Therefore, we can safely say that most good dog owners can find a terrier that suits their lifestyle.

Our mission is to ensure mentally and physically healthy, breed-typical terriers and create a club environment that attracts the majority of Denmark’s terrier owners. In short, it is our job to ensure that all terrier breeds still exist in several hundred years.

DKK EDUCATED breeder

Dansk Kennel Klub (in colloquial speech: DKK) is Denmark’s largest organization for dog owners. All kinds of dog owners (both with purebred dogs and other dogs) and dog enthusiasts without a dog can be members. Today, DKK has around 30,000 members.
DKK was founded in 1897 and is thus one of Denmark’s oldest associations.

Member of FCI

The Danish Kennel Club is – as the only Danish organization – recognized by the international association of national kennel clubs, the Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI).

FCI is an abbreviation for Fédération Cynologique Internationale (The International Cynological Association. Cynology is the study of the dog).

The FCI is an association of national kennel clubs. The FCI recognizes only one national kennel club per country, and in Denmark it is the Danish Kennel Club.

FCI was founded on 22 May 1911 and Denmark became a member in 1934.

FCI currently has 76 full member countries, 12 associated countries and 7 so-called contract partners. In addition, a collaboration has been established with the two major dog countries outside the FCI, the USA and England.

Tips for new

dog owners:

01.

Purchase Supplies

Head to your local pet store or online retailer to gather the supplies your new dog will need. Be sure to purchase:

  • A collar and leash; consider ordering an identification tag as well
  • Food and water bowls
  • A dog bed and crate
  • Dog poop disposal bags
  • Dog food — check with your shelter or breeder to find out what food your pup has been eating and if they will provide a starter portion. Always transition to new food gradually to avoid causing an upset stomach.
  • Treats
  • Toys like tennis balls or chew toys

When it comes to toys and treats, it’s a good idea to start out with just a few options while you get to know your dog’s personality, digestive system and preferences. As you learn what your dog likes, you can add more to their collection.

02.

Prepare Your Home for a New Dog

Before you bring your pup home, make sure your house — and the people and pets already living there — is ready:

  • Set up a designated dog zone with your new pet’s crate, bed and toys where they can feel safe as they adjust.
  • Establish house rules. Are pets allowed on the couch or bed? Are any rooms off-limits? Who’s in charge of walking and feeding the dog?
  • Puppy-proof your house if you are bringing home a young dog. Keep electrical cords out of reach, put trash or recycling in lidded containers or behind closed doors, and hide shoes, socks and anything else a puppy might chew in closets or drawers.
  • Make sure any current pets’ shots are up to date. It’s a good idea to have all pets on an effective flea preventive year-round, as well.

03.

Give Your Dog Lots of Time to Acclimate

It’s finally time to introduce your new dog to their forever home! Remember that this exciting time can be a little scary for your dog; here’s how you can help with their transition:

  • Plan to take the dog home at the beginning of the weekend or on a day when you can dedicate the entire day (or, ideally, a few days) to helping them get settled.
  • Let your dog explore the house and yard. Be sure to show them the place they’ll go to the bathroom and give them some time to go, followed by lots of praise and positive reinforcement.
  • Give your dog some space. Your new pet may, understandably, feel overwhelmed. Try to balance giving them love and attention with some time alone so they can get used to their new home at their own pace.

04.

Start Training Your Dog

Depending on your new pet’s age and background, they will require varying amounts of house training, obedience training and socialization. Remember: It’s never too early to start training! Throughout the training process, consistency, patience and positive reinforcement are key.

  • Make sure your dog knows who’s boss. If you catch them doing something they shouldn’t, immediately let them know they’ve misbehaved in a calm, firm and disapproving voice.
  • Reward good behavior with lots of praise and treats.
  • Consider signing up for a local dog obedience class, especially if you live in a busy household that may not have a lot of spare time for training.
  • Pay attention to your dog’s habits and tendencies. Watch your new pet to learn if they’re more likely to cause trouble in a certain room or area, such as the bathroom trashcan or the cat’s litterbox. Be sure to reprimand the bad behavior when appropriate, and consider moving temptations out of reach or out of sight.
  • Expect to have a few hiccups along the way. It will take your new pup some time and patience to learn their new rules. Don’t get discouraged!

05.

Visit the Vet to Check on Your Dog’s Health

Within the first week or so, schedule a visit to the vet. Whether or not your dog has any immediate veterinary needs, this visit will help your dog get to know the vet and technicians — and hopefully reduce stress during follow-up visits.

The vet may discuss the following matters at your dog’s first visit:

  • Necessary vaccinations
  • Spaying or neutering
  • Implementing a routine parasite prevention plan to help keep your dog free of flea, tick, mosquito and heartworm issues

Getting a dog for the first time can be both exciting and overwhelming. But if you prepare your home and family, patiently help your dog settle in and partner with a vet you trust, you’ll be laying the foundation for a strong bond with your dog that will last a lifetime.
