About the Club
Established to preserve and protect the Thai Bangkaew Dog in the United
States. The Thai Bangkaew Dog Club of America offers educational programs,
health clinics & competitive events for the Thai Bangkaew Dog. The TBDCA
also holds the American stud book & provides the breed registry. This
association, formed in 2004, is the parent club of the breed in this
country. The club was created by a diverse group of dog owners who share
the common interest of raising, training, breeding and competing with
the TBD.
The Thai Bangkaew is a rare breed throughout the world except in it's
native Thailand. TBD are highly intelligent, watchful, loyal companions.
If you presently own a Thai Bangkaew Dog, visit our Registration page
for information on registering your dog. The official breed standard
adopted and utilized by the TBDCA was written based on the Thai Bangkaew
Dog Union Club Standard.
The TBDCA is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of four officers
and three directors. This Board is elected by the club membership every
two years and meets at least once a year, at the annual National Specialty.
The Annual Membership Meeting is held during the National Specialty
and all members in good standing are encouraged to participate, express
their opinions and vote on matters brought to the membership.
We invite you to apply for membership in the club - please see the club
Membership page for requirements & application. Members in good standing
receive the password for the online Club Newsletter which includes import
information, club events, specialty show information, titles, pictures,
articles, training, grooming and health care tips.
We subscribe to Thai traditions and endeavor to preserve this breed's
type in America as it has been preserved for 100 years in Thailand.
Thus we encourage both working and conformation activities.
