The Japan Kennel Club (ジャパンケネルクラブ) is the primary registry body for purebred dog pedigreesinJapan.[1]

It hosts the FCI (Fédération Cynologique Internationale) Japan International Dog Show held annually at the Tokyo Big Sight; the event also includes two grooming competitions, with the highest award regarded as the "best in Japan" title.[2][3]

Other than conformation shows, the JKC promotes obedience trials for purebred dogs and confers championship and other titles in obedience and similar competitions; the JKC also certifies and examines groomers, trainers and other dog-related professionals.[citation needed] It also administers tests and certifies rescue dogs,[4] as well as host rescue dog competitions.[5]

History

[edit]

The precursor to the organization, the Japan Guard Dog Association (全日本警備犬協会, Zen Nihon keibi ken kyokai) was formed in 1949; this then became the Japan Kennel Club (ジャパン・ケンネル・クラブ, Japan kenneru kurabu) in 1952.[6][7] The Club became a member of the Fédération Cynologique Internationale (World Canine Federation) in 1979.[8][7] The Japanese name was amended to Japan keneru kurabu (ジャパンケネルクラブ) in 1999.[7]
