List of domestic dogs

The Kintamani or Kintamani-Bali dog ( Anjing Kintamani-Bali ) is a dog breed from Bali that is very closely related to the pariah dogs that live there as street dogs . The Kintamani takes its name from Kintamani , a region in the Bangli district on the crater rim of the Batur volcano .

History and recognition as a breed

The Kintamani is a popular domestic dog among Balinese people and it is believed that the breed originated in the region around the village of Kintamani, where it lives with the Balinese street dogs. According to folklore, the breed originated in the 15th century and began with a Chow Chow that belonged to a wealthy Chinese. This man is said to have settled in the mountainous region of Kintamini and married into the family of King Jaya Pangus. His Chow Chow is said to have mated with local dogs, which is how the Kintamani is said to have originated. However, this legend is certainly wrong. According to genetic studies, the Kintamani evolved from the wild dogs of Bali and does not go back to a mixture with Chow Chows. Although the Balinese street dogs have a greater variety of physical characteristics than the Kintamani, all of the characteristics of the Kintamani are present in the population of feral Balinese dogs. The appearance of the Kintamani is associated with the farming habits of the farmers in the Kintamini region. Bitches, presumably those who were manageable and of the desired type, were kept by local farmers and their puppies were sold. Bitches were allowed to mate freely with the males of the region, whereby the selection for a certain appearance mainly affected females, unlike most modern western breeds, which go back to only a few founder individuals and where the influence of a few males was excessive.

1985 saw the first dog show in Indonesia where Kintamanis were presented. The Kintamani is recognized by the Perkumpulan Kinologi Indonesia (PERKIN) ( The All Indonesia Kennel Club ) breed association and presented as a National Breed . PERKIN represents Indonesia in the FCI . Since 2005 at the latest there have been efforts to have the breed recognized by the FCI. On February 18, 2006 PERKIN decided on a breed standard , on February 23, 2012 the breed was recognized in Manila by the Asian Kennel Union , an association of Asian FCI member organizations. The Kintamani is thus Indonesia's first pedigree dog . The FCI provisionally recognized him on February 20, 2019 under the number 326

October 2004 show that white with apricot at the edges of the ears is the preferred color, but that other coat colors such as black would also be accepted, white is already laid down as coat color in the first PERKIN breed standard from 2006. The fur should be white with reddish tips on the ears, tail and hind legs. Any color other than white qualifies as a single defect.
