CBKC Brazil Dog Breed Directory Scraper

Scrapes the complete CBKC (Confederação Brasileira de Cinofilia) dog breed directory — the official FCI member body for Brazil. Returns structured records for all ~255 breeds including FCI-recognised breeds, Brazilian-developed breeds, and CBKC-recognised non-FCI breeds. Each record includes the Portuguese breed name, FCI number, group, country of origin, breed category, and a direct URL to the CBKC-hosted official PT-BR breed standard PDF.

CBKC Brazil Dog Breed Directory Scraper Features

  • Covers all ~255 breeds across three categories: FCI-recognised (224), Brazilian-developed (11), and CBKC-only non-FCI (20)
  • Returns FCI metadata — FCI nomenclature number and group for every FCI-registered breed
  • Captures CBKC internal IDs — the cbkc_id attribute that links each breed to its CBKC record
  • Provides standard PDF links — direct URL to the CBKC-hosted PT-BR translation of the FCI breed standard
  • Includes file version timestamps — the file_version field tracks PDF update timestamps for change detection
  • Classifies breed categories — FCI, Brasileira, or Não-FCI per CBKC's own classification scheme
  • No proxy required — site has no anti-bot measures; runs on standard datacenter connection
  • Completes in under 60 seconds — 12 requests to a fast server, no JavaScript rendering needed

What Can You Do With CBKC Breed Data?

  • AI and NLP training datasets — the canonical PT-BR FCI breed name corpus for training multilingual breed-classification models; the only comprehensive PT-BR source for all FCI groups
  • Veterinary and kennel platforms — localise breed metadata for Brazilian or Portuguese-language platforms (breed names, country of origin, FCI group)
  • Breed-traceability and pedigree services — Whistle/Embark equivalents entering the Brazilian market; link breed DNA results to official CBKC standards
  • Companion scraper to AKC/UKC data — pairs with the AKC Dog Breed Directory Scraper for cross-registry breed matching and gap analysis (AKC ≠ FCI ≠ CBKC)
  • Academic and regulatory research — FCI group/section classification for breed-specific legislation analysis in Brazil and other FCI member countries

How It Works

  1. The scraper paginates through the 10-page CBKC breed listing at cbkc.org/racas — all FCI-recognised breeds are grouped by FCI group across these pages.
  2. Two supplemental pages add the remaining breeds: lista/brasileiras for CBKC-only Brazilian breeds (Grupo 11) and lista/n_fci for non-FCI CBKC-recognised breeds.
  3. Each breed card is parsed for name, FCI standard header, FCI group, country, and the PDF download button's data-file attribute. The data-file encodes both the cbkc_id and file_version.
  4. PDF URL is assembled as https://cbkc.org/application/views/docs/padroes/padrao-raca_{cbkc_id}.pdf?v={file_version}.
