FBA Mission Statement
July l992 was the date of the founding of the Fila Brasileiro
Association, otherwise known as the FBA. The State of Texas issued
the incorporation papers on February 24, 1993.
The Fila Brasileiro Association, Inc. follows the procedures and breed
standard # 225 of l976, revised on l984, of the Brazilian Confederation
of Cynophile (CBKC).
The FBA will not tolerate the internal promotion by any other
organizations or individuals who support standards other than that of
the original version # 225 of l976, revised in l984, issued by CBKC.
The FBA is a non-profit organization that is truly interested in
promoting and preserving the Fila Brasileiro breed according to the
original standard of the breed.
The FBA has no registry of its own. It will honor the registries of
CBKC and FCPR (Federacion Canofila de Puerto Rico).
The FBA Delegates, representing each state, and many foreign
countries, may promote matches, specialty shows, working
competitions, seminars, meetings, social activities, and distribute
information on the breed and Association.
The FILA DIGEST is our means of communication. It contains letters,
articles, reports, health information, and show announcements. An
annual fiscal report will be published in the newsletter as well
minutes of all meetings, (General annual meeting or Special meeting).
The FBA will not allow non-owners to vote.
The FBA Bylaws clearly state that the Association does not
discriminate in membership eligibility nor in selecting officers,
directors, or delegates, on the basis of color, race, religion,
religious creed,, nationality, ancestry, or citizenship.
The FBA will strive to answer any correspondence within thirty (30)
days of its receipt. In order to cover expenses, the FBA's income
will come from the membership fees, newsletter ads, show entry fees,
working competitions, temperament tests, seminars, donations, social
activities, silent auctions, raffles, etc.
General Meetings will be held at least once a year or when the
President deems it necessary.
