Will the Puppy have FCI pedigree
Will the Puppy have FCI pedigree ?
A Puppy from the Czech breeding will have FCI pedigree.
Just check that the litter is registered in the Club friends of Chodský dogs on the website .
A Puppy from abroad (outside Czech republic): - here it is more complicated.
The Chodský dog breed is now recognized at some national organizations (falls under the FCI) .
Namely: in the Nordic countries, in Slovakia and in Switzerland.
There they are given FCI pedigree for puppies if the parents have FCI pedigree and if they are registered in their stud book.
Yet even in these countries all puppies don't have FCI pedigree.
I recommend contacting the Clubs for breeders of Chodský dogs in those countries (for information) .
Contacts for Clubs (or some member of the club) I'll disclose in the section CHD in Europe
Great caution should be taken when somebody wants to buy a puppy in Germany.
Here, according to my information, the puppies don't have FCI pedigree.
But, unfortunately, not only in Germany.
(Outside FCI, there are other canine organizations. These organizations aren't accepted of the FCI.)
Therefore it 's necessary to look at the pedigree of puppies from Germany. If they have characteristic symbols of FCI !!
If puppies haven’t FCI pedigree - in future they will not be allowed to neither participate in FCI exhibitions nor be able to intervene in the breed.
Therefore I recommended to identify, whether pedigrees of the parents have FCI symbols and also to find out which stud book exposes pedigrees for the puppies.
Before buying a puppy Chodský dog outside the territory of the Czech Republic.
