Population and International Distribution

The Silken Windsprite is today established in several European countries and is in part already recognized and registered by national cynological organizations.

​

“The international distribution of the Silken Windsprite is already a reality – its structured and harmonized management, however, is not.”

​

The existing populations show a stable to growing development.
Particularly noteworthy is the structured breeding in Germany, complemented by further consolidated populations in the Netherlands, Switzerland, Scandinavia and more.

​

At the same time, it is evident that the recording and management of the population is currently inconsistent and largely dependent on national structures.
A central, standardized data collection system is lacking.

​

This situation underlines the need for overarching harmonization within the framework of the Fédération Cynologique Internationale.

​

Recognition would:

• enable international comparability of the population

• make the breeding base transparent and traceable

• secure long-term genetic stability

• integrate existing national structures into a unified system​​​​​
