Anatolian Shepherd Dog / Kangal Dog
At the October 2011 ANKC Ltd
Board meeting it was resolved that as from 1 January 2012 all Kangal Dogs on
the national database will be changed to Anatolian Shepherd Dogs.
There are 340 animals registered
as Kangal Dogs within the database of which 55 of those animals have notes
“1998 changed from Anatolian Shepherd Dogs to Kangal Dogs”.
Those 55 animals have been changed
manually from Kangal Dogs to Anatolian Shepherd Dogs in order to retain the
previous notes and a further note placed on each of the records “2011 changed
from Kangal Dog to Anatolian Shepherd Dog”. The remaining 285 animals have been
changed in the background and notes placed within each individual record.
The Kangal Dog has been removed
from the ANKC Ltd Group listing and the breed standard has also been removed
from the ANKC Ltd website as the breed is no longer recognised.

It has come to our attention that our members are incorrectly locking the main RASNT gate.
This is not an isolated instance, but infact has happened 6 times in a 4 month period.
The inconvenience casued to RASNT staff is not tolerable and continued issues may lead
to denial of use of that gate to DogsNT members.
There is a picture on the Shean Road gate of the correct and only procedure for locking that gate.
