The Kazakh Tazy has officially
received a patent recognizing the uniqueness of the dog breed. The National
Institute of Intellectual Property issued the document based on the conclusion of
the state commission of the country’s Ministry of Agriculture. The patent
holder is the Kansonar Association of hunters, engaged in preserving national
dog breeds. They are now responsible for the conservation, breeding, and promotion
of the Tobet and Tazy breeds. The population of the latter has been restored in
regional kennels across the country. The breed is well adapted to harsh natural
and climatic conditions. In 2023, President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev signed a law placing
the Kazakh dog breeds under state protection. Last year, the International
Canine Federation (FCI) granted preliminary recognition to the Kazakh Tazy as
an official dog breed and designated Kazakhstan as its standard holder.
