A single-breed show for the Qazaq Tazy was held in Kazakhstan's capital as part of an international dog exhibition, showcasing the national breed and selecting its finest representatives. The Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources reported this, according to infohub.kz.
During the event, experts assessed the tazy for compliance with the breed standard and breed qualities. The ministry recalled that the Qazaq Tazy has been linked to the history of the Kazakh people for centuries and is part of the zheti qazyna — the "seven treasures."
According to the ministry, Kazakhstan is working to preserve and breed the tazy, as well as to promote it abroad. A comprehensive plan for 2026–2036 has been approved for this purpose.
The ministry believes that single-breed shows help preserve the breed qualities of the Qazaq Tazy, develop responsible breeding, and introduce the national breed to a wider audience.
Earlier, Kursiv wrote that on September 3, Kazakhstan for the first time marked the Day of the Kazakh Tazy and Tobet. It was also reported how tazy breed purity is confirmed and dogs are placed on breeding records: as of August 14, 2026, 4,034 tazy were registered in the country — more than twice as many as in January 2023.
