| Can a litter be registered if Dam is APRI and Sire is AKC Hi everyone, I have a question. OK, I have a female Yorkie who is registered as APRI. She is in heat and has been in heat for 10 days now. I took her to the vet and had her checked to make sure she was OK and ready to carry babies. Everything came out ok and she's ready. I want to breed her but I don't know anyone who has a male who is APRI registered. My grandpa has a AKC registered small male Yorkie. He wants me to breed them, but after looking into the APRI and the AKC sites. Both Dam and Sire have to registered the same to register the litter. I always thought that as long as the female was registered then the litter can be registered the same as the mother. Any advise or help would be appreciated. Please don't be rude..Im just needing advise not a lecture. Thank You. |

| No, you cannot register litter as AKC - both mom and dad must be AKC to do so. Have you also checked the Yorkshire terrier standard to see if they are good examples/representation of the breed? Vets do not know each breed standard. What tests did you have done at the vets?? The male should be checked and tested too before breeding. Just wanted to make sure you knew that it is more than just a regular health check. I hope this inforamtion has helped. :-) Last edited by topknot; 08-01-2009 at 09:14 AM. |

| It does look like your Grandpa may register his AKC dog with APRI if the breeder of his dog is in good standing with AKC he could get dual registry. He would need to also send in all documentation to register with APRI. Once he got that then you could register pups with APRI. Sounds like a lot of work. Here is the link I found on your question: Design Site For America's Pet Registry From APRI site: "I have an APRI registered dog and an AKC registered dog. Can I breed them and register the litter? APRI accepts all AKC dog registration certificates at face value if the breeder/owner is in good standing with AKC. The AKC dog can be dual registered with APRI and any litters produced may then be registered with APRI. Dual registration does not remove the current registration; it merely means the dog is now registered with more than one service. " |

| The vet checked her temperature, checked her heart beat, eyes, ears, and her stomach...etc. Pretty much a checkup. I've been taking her to him since I got her so he knew she had all her shots, heartguard..etc. Not long ago she got into some alfredo pasta and made her a bit sick..(my son left a bowl of it on the kitchen table and ran to his room for something) we then found out she's a speed eater..lol. So I took her in to get her looked at, they then had done some tests on her pretty much everything from parvo to heartworms just to be on the safe side. Paid a pretty penny for the bill, but she's worth it. I just don't know what to do. I was suppose to breed them today, but what good would it do if I can't register the puppies. |

And what you had was just a basic physical. You need to also do a Bile Acid test, full blood panel (I do - to check all blood chem, levels), check petellas (knees), not to mention Burcellious (sp) test to check for STDs. Same for the male. I do not breed unless I have had these tests done. Just the blood panel alone runs me about 85.00. When breeding - you want them thoroughly checked out, just not a regular physical. Yes, a regular physical is expensive alone, but you must go further. | |

| I looked back at your other posts and noticed that your girl is still young - she just turned 1 in June, so she is just 13 months. So you have plenty of time to wait. And glad your girl got over her kennel cough from when you got her. Last edited by topknot; 08-01-2009 at 10:52 AM. |

| America's Pet Registry Inc. America's Pet Registry, Inc.: Puppy millers favorite way to registering their sick/over breed/inbreed dogs. The problem is that you basically can register any dog with APRI... |

She's young, there is always another heat cycle coming, which would give you time to find a male, and have testing done on both parents, since just being registered is not a guarantee that they are genetically healthy, and will produce healthy babies. Personally, I would never purchase, or ever breed anything but AKC registered. Any breeder that I have met, or heard of that has switched to another registry has been suspended from AKC. But they never tell you that, they always use the excuse that AKC is too expensive. Well, that $25.00 per litter and $2.00 per puppy to register should not be too expensive when they are getting hundreds if not thousands of dollars on each pup. Just doesn't make sense, and if you dig farther.. they are usually in trouble with AKC anyway. So if it were me, and my intention of breeding was to produce the highest quality, and healthiest babies possible.. I'd regroup, and find a responsible AKC breeder willing to mentor me and help me get started with the very best possible breeding pair. Now, if your intentions were just to have babies because you think your female is gorgeous and her puppies would be cute, then a registration is not that important. If you thought the cost was high at the Vet Check, you ought to see what an Emergency C-Section costs, and the cost of taking "good" care of a litter of pups can be! I plan on $1000.00 per litter just to take care of Mom and the puppies. That's not for any Emergencies that may arise! | |
