On 30 July 2019 in Vilnius the Lithuanian Kennel Club held an international conference entitled “Pedigree Dogs: Breeding, Reputation, Welfare and Challenges”.

The following day after the conference, preliminary meeting of the newly established FCI Commission for Education and Public Relations took place.

During the meeting the presentation, aims and objections of the commission were discussed and the election of the Board of the commission took place.

The President of the Lithuanian Kennel Club Mrs. Ramune Kazlauskaite was elected the President of the FCI Commission for Education and Public Relations.

Proposal to establish the FCI Commission for Education and Public Relations was brought forward during the FCI Assembly on 28-29 April 2019 in Shanghai.

The assembly was attended by delegates of 76 FCI member countries. Lithuania was represented by the President of the Lithuanian Kennel Club Ramune Kazlauskaite.

A new book entitled „The Lithuanian Hound“ was published in 2021 by Vilnius University Press.

The authors of the publication are Mantas Milinavičius, Marius Smetona and Anželika Smetonienė – Lithuanian Hounds breeders and lovers.

The Lithuanian Hound is not yet recognised by the FCI but breed lovers and breeders make a huge effort for this to happen.

„It is one more step forward towards recognision, which is extremely important for preserving and promoting our national dog breed, – says Ramune Kazlauskaite, the President of the Lithuanian Kennel Club.

Some extracts from the book:

A preliminary dog show schedule for 2021 has been arranged.

The Lithuanian Kennel Club is planning to have international dog shows in Moletai on 2-4 July, in Druskininkai on 6-8 August, in Palanga on 24-26 September and in Vilnius on 17-19 December.

National and speciality shows will mainly be held outside during the warm season.
