Centrale Canine

The Federation known as the "Central Canine Society for the Improvement of Dog Breeds in France", founded in 1881, and recognized as a public utility establishment, by decree of April 28, 1914, aims to:

- ensure the improvement and the reconstitution of breeds of working, sporting and pleasure dogs in France

- to federate the various Societies and the various French Clubs which deal with breeds of dogs, their promotion, their education and their usefulness

- to bring them, by their very group, more credit for the defense of the interests of the breeding near the Public authorities the Administrations and the foreign Companies

- to patronize the International Championships, and the general regulations established in the Canine Sport by the Foreign associations and the Fédération Cynologique Internationale, of which the Société Centrale Canine has been a member since its creation in 1911 (the SCC being one of the five founding members).
