CBKC Brazil Dog Show Rankings Scraper

Scrape annual dog show rankings from CBKC — the Confederação Brasileira de Cinofilia, Brazil's FCI-affiliated national kennel club. Extracts breeder and kennel rankings by year (2016–present) including position, kennel name, breed, owner, and points.

What data does this scraper extract?

Each record covers one ranked entry from a CBKC annual ranking table:

Field Description
ranking_year Calendar year of the ranking (e.g. 2025)
ranking_category Category name: Top 10 Criadores (top breeders overall) or Top 5 Criadores de cada Raca (top 5 per breed)
position Numerical rank position within the category
kennel_name Name of the kennel (canil)
breed Breed name in Portuguese (FCI standard)
owner Primary owner name
co_owner Co-owner name, if listed
points Points accumulated during the ranking year
scraped_at ISO 8601 timestamp of when the record was scraped

Input configuration

Parameter Type Description Default
maxItems integer Maximum number of records to scrape. Set large (e.g. 5000) to retrieve all historical data across all years. required

How it works

  1. Seeds one request per ranking year (2016 through the current year) at cbkc.org/rankings/por_ano/{year}
  2. For each year page, parses two Bootstrap tab pane tables:
    • Top 10 Criadores — the top 10 kennels overall by accumulated show points
    • Top 5 Criadores de cada Raça — the top 5 kennels per breed
  3. Returns all matching rows as flat records

The CBKC site is server-rendered PHP/CodeIgniter with no JavaScript required — all data is present in the initial HTML response.

Data coverage

  • Scope: Covers Brazil only (FCI affiliated, CBKC registered)
  • Years: 2016–present (new year added when CBKC opens its annual ranking)
  • Volume: Approximately 4,000 records for a full historical run (~10 records/year from Top 10 Criadores + ~400 per year from Top 5 per breed)
  • Update cadence: Rankings update in real-time during the calendar year; historical years are final

Use cases

  • Breeder market intelligence — identify which kennels dominate specific breeds
  • Pedigree traceability platforms — link championship-level breeders to lineages
  • Breed club historical records
  • AI training datasets for dog-breed celebrity graphs
  • Competitive analysis for kennel marketing (Brazil + LATAM)

Notes

  • The dog_name, breed_group, show_count, handler, and region fields are not present in the CBKC ranking tables and will always be null
  • Kennel names marked "RANKING SOB ANÁLISE" (ranking under review) appear as-is — these are legitimate entries under active administrative review by CBKC
  • Rankings for the current year are live/partial until year-end
