Direct from the APR site:
We hope that registration will make your pet more valuable to you. In the eyes of the public this certainly seems to be a factor in pricing them for sale. All that is needed to start a family tree is your pets registration.
YIKES!
and this from the APRI site
APRI announces the founding of American Pet Records
America's Pet Registry, Inc. has yielded to the requests of numerous breeders and pet owners to establish a registry service that can accept dogs with known parents but those that do not have documented pedigrees at this time.
Until now, APRI has been unable to register many dogs from other registry services that do not have documented pedigrees. With the establishment of American Pet Records the same great APRI service is available to those who have begged APRI to accept their dogs for dual registration.
The American Pet Records dogs will not be entered into the APRI database but will be recorded separately. An American Pet Records dog may be mated with an APRI dog; however, the litter will be issued as American Pet Records. Litter pedigrees will not be offered on these litters, nor will pedigrees on the American Pet Records dogs be available at this time.
When Reg'ing a litter with APRI - they REQUIRED a 3 generation pedigree but will accept from CKC UKC UAB and so on.
