Verband für das Deutsche Hundewesen (VDH) is Germany's kennel club for dogs and represents Germany in the world federation Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI). It is headquartered in Dortmund, Germany.[1]

As the country-wide controlling body, the VDH represents 167 member organizations with more than 650,000 members.[citation needed] In addition, there are over 250 different breeds of dog in the VDH.[citation needed]

History[edit]

On 16 July 1906 the de:Kartell der Stammbuchführender Spezialklubs für Jagd- und Nutzhunde was founded as the second German umbrella organization alongside the de:Delegierten-Commission; first president was de:Albert de Gingins. In 1914, the cartel changed its name to Kartell der Rassezuchtvereine und allgemeine Verbände and in 1925 to Deutsches Kartell für Hundewesen (DKH). After Hitler's seizure of power in 1933, the Reichsverband für die Deutsche Hundewesen (RDH) was established as a "unitary organization" and the DKH, Delegierten-Commission and Verband von Vereinen zur Prüfung von Gebrauchshunden zur Jagd were incorporated into these. The breed breeding societies became student councils. Hans Glockner is appointed chairman by the Reich Sportführer. In 1934 Glockner was elected by the FCI as its president. In 1937, the Reichsverband, from which the hunting federations had been separated, became the Reichsfachgruppe Deutsches Hundewesen e.V. (RDH) in the Reichsverband Deutscher Kleintierzüchter e.V.. Managing Director of the RDH Konrad Most was appointed in 1933 to the Reichsabrichtewart für Diensthunde. In 1939 the RDH was spun off from the Reichsverband Deutscher Kleintierzüchter e.V. and became independent as the Reichsverband für Hundewesen e.V. (RH). This was placed under the supervision of the High Command of the Army. In 1941, the RH resigned from the FCI.[2]

Until 1941, de:Arno Manthey was president of the Reichsverband, after whose death Forstmeister Mueller was appointed president of the RH in November by order of Reichsführer SS and the dog trade of SS.

After the dissolution of the RH, ordered by the Allies, on 1 January 1946[3] was his board member Franz Bazille (1933 Reichsausstellungswart in the RDH) involved in the founding of the VDH on 11 June 1949. The former managing director of the DKH from 1933 Franz Bazille was appointed honorary president in 1952 and remained that until his death on 12 October 1952.
