 ACA vs AKC
AKC has existed since the 1800's
ACA is 20 years old
AKC has very strick standards they will not register a litter AKC if one parent is an ACA. AKC will not accept ACA registration. AKC tracks by pedigree. AKC has show quality standards.
ACA will accept a picture and letter from the owner of the animal or written information from a vet (stating your dog is a purebed) a pedigree is not necessary, thus allowing a non-papered animal to become papered. ACA will accept AKC registration. ACA has no defined show quality standard.
There is some much more but this is the main difference.
hope this helps
