The Indian National Kennel Club was established on 21st March 1957 to promote proper breeding, rearing and training of dogs.
The Indian National Kennel Club is the leading authority on registration on purebreds and maintains the recognized registry. It issues Pedigrees for purebreds and litters. It hosts annual shows across the country and awards championships to various breeds of dogs.
