Personally, I would question the registration if it is Continental Kennel Club. They have been known to register just about anything. Many breeders that did not want to DNA test left AKC for CKC when AKC instituted the DNA program. IMO - if you are not willing to DNA test - you are not sure on the parentage of your dogs.
If you are not sure about the parentage then you have no way of knowing what inherited issues are lerking in the dogs you are using. So I would steer clear of any dogs that are not registered with AKC or the Canadian Kennel Club. AKC doesn't guarantee the parentage but I think you have a better shot at it being correct with them than with the other registries is USA.
I think Lorriane can confirm that the Canadian Kennel Club is stricter than the AKC!
