| Pedigree? Ok I ordered the pedigree for two of my dogs and now I am thinking what is this for? I thought it would show if my dogs had any chamopion line in them. It is interesting but I would just like to know what they are used for. Thanks for your help |

| Champions beyond the 3rd generation is meaningless. But, a 10 generation pedigree helps breeder/exhibitors when planning. Most know pedigrees backward and forwards. Offspring of offspring.

| Mardelin I just sent you a PM I got the 4 generation online to print out I didnt see a 5 unless I overlooked it. So what you are saying is that if they were a champion it would state so? |

Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. If you're breeding healthy, quality pet yorkies, pedigrees aren't that important. Just as long as there is no genetic history of health issues.

| If they are canadian champions, it won't be on your AKC pedigree. I have a pedigree that almost every dog on the three gen is a canadian champion and I thought my breeder had lied to me when I got the AKC pedigree and it didn't show there. LOL |

| Stud dogs that have sired over three litters in one year or seven in a lifetime, have to be dna tested. That number will show up under the dogs name and AKC number. Some females are dna tested too but not required to be. |

| You DNA the dogs per AKC rules in case there is any question on the parentage of a litter. Some do DNA on our girls too.
