So, an akc registration is PROOF that your dog is a purebred? Because we all know that akc dogs are just registered as such. If a breeder has an akc yorkie and it gets pregnant by an akc maltese, how many times do you think that litter is registered as pure? They sure look like purebred yorkies and there's a male registered yorkie on the premises and they are worthless without their akc papers. I know there are honest breeders out there, but there are also dishonest ones and there's no way to know that somewhere along the line your akc dog hasn't been prey to this. It's just a peice of paper, talk about your crayons, you can have a breed standard and strive to achieve it, but a PURE breed dog? IMO there's no such animal.
