Yes, when I get a research pedigree I just used the AKC number of the dog I am researching. Going back 5 generations is sufficient but I know it is fun to go back further sometimes. Often you can go to other breeders websites and pull up pedigrees on some of the older dogs in your dogs pedigree if they were champions. If you just have a 3 generation pedigree then a 5 generation pedigree will give you a lot more information.
