BANGKOK, Sept 2 (The Nation Thailand/ANN): The Federation Cynologique Internationale (FCI) has approved official certification of Thailand’s Bangkaew Dog as a new breed, making it only the second Thai breed to be officially certified by the Belgium-based international canine federation.

The FCI, which comprises 98 member countries and has approved more than 355 dog breeds, granted the first official-breed certificate to Thailand’s Ridgeback in 2003. The Bangkaew was granted a temporary certificate by the FCI in 2011 and its status has only now been upgraded to official this year.
