Dear Readers,

Taking a close look at the agenda, you will surely notice that the second part of the show and sport season is rather busy !

Over the next three to four months, not less than 4 major FCI Championships will take place:

From 17 to 19 June, the European Lure Coursing Championship will take place in Velke Pole (Slovak Republic). It is a unique opportunity to enjoy this very specific and enthusiastic atmosphere of racing dogs major championships (info: http://www.skj.sk).

From 30 June to 3 July, Moscow (Russia) will be happy to host the FCI World Championship of Obedience where many competitors, representatives of their national teams, are expected to compete, like every year (info: http://www.rkf.org.ru ).

End of August (from 26 to 28), the Société Royale Saint-Hubert will make it a point to greet the exhibitors and breeders from all over the world in Brussels (Belgium) at the Brussels Expo venue. The FCI European Section Show will be, no doubt about it, an exceptional event (info: http://www.srsh.be)

Finally, last and for sure not least, Moscow (again) will have the honour to host the 2016 World Dog Show. This prestigious event will be celebrated between 23 and 26 June. Three hundred breeds and thousands of dogs will undoubtedly meet in the Russian capital to gain the coveted title of “World Winner” (info: http://www.rkf.org.ru

The Canine World never sleeps! We do look forward to meeting you at one (or all) of these events!
