Aquiring papers for a pup depends on who the breeder reports the parents to be. For example, if I had an AKC registered female and male and a CKC or non-registered male. Which kennel club would be able to determine that the 2 ACK dogs were really the parents? What would stop someone from breeding the AKC female and the non-registered male, but claiming the pups were from AKC parents? Does that make sense. I think you really have to put alot of trust in the breeder--that piece of paper, regardless of the kennel club, is only as good as ANY breeder says it is. |
I was going to add something along this line also. I got ripped off on my first male Yorkie and never got his papers (that is why my pups were sold with no papers as I mentioned above). Anyway, I ran into a girl that bred Boxers and I told her how I got ripped off and had no papers for my male. She actually said to me "Do you know anyone else that would let you use their Yorkie's AKC information?" I couldn't believe it. I said that I would NEVER do that and she said she and others that she knows does it all the time.
