I was given a name of a breeder to contact and she lists that she has both AKC and ACA registery. I totally agree with you about breeders who follow a high breeding standard and that is why I am researching. |
Personally I would be skeptical of anyone with duel registries. This could mean that one of the parents are registered with one registry, and one with another. The problem is that some people buy AKC puppies with limited registration, meaning no breeding rights. They go ahead and breed them anyway, and register them with one of the alternative registries. This is legal, but it's not ethical, and since the alternative registries have no problem with this, I choose not to support them.
