my issues are about the UKC ones since those are less likely to have the same background that the AKC ones do. |
Both the girl I championed at 14 months and the one I championed at eight months in UKC were the first dogs from their lines to ever have been shown in UKC and both come from a long, long line of AKC champions. so you are wrong about that. i could throw some of the names in my pedigrees out there and everyone that shows would recognize them as well established show lines. I'm not talking about early generations either. My dogs are all AKC first and only the ones I show UKC are dual registered. None of my baby puppies are registered UKc Mary is right. UKC is a fabulous training ground for new exhibitors.
