In what year did the FCI grant definitive acceptance to the Berger Blanc Suisse breed?
Answer
2011
The formal process of international recognition for the Berger Blanc Suisse was staggered by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI). The breed first achieved provisional recognition from the FCI in the year 2002. This provisional status allowed the breed to develop further under international scrutiny until the FCI officially granted the breed full, definitive acceptance in 2011. This final step cemented the Berger Blanc Suisse as an independent breed, officially separate from its German Shepherd roots and distinct from other regional White Shepherd recognitions.
