I had a AKC representative come here last month for an inspection and I looked at his card but I can't really remember that much about it. It was a picture id and it had The American Kennel Club on it from what I remember. I also got his business card. During our conversation he did tell me that last year there was someone going around to breeders homes posing as an AKC Representative. He said they thought is was PETA members but the people were never caught.
If you have a representative that you are in doubt about then you could always ask their name and call AKC before letting them in your home. The representative will always wear plastic coverings over their shoes and they carry a laptop so they can log on AKC's website and check your dog records on the spot.
I usually have 7 litters a year and I have been inspected 3 times over the past 5 years. All three times everything checked out perfect. I really appreciate AKC and the job they are doing. |
