I would not support a breeder who registered with one of the "paper" registries and I certainly wouldn’t register my dog with them. I believe that they encourage people to illegally breed. People who have no breeding rights can register their offspring with them. Since they will register anything, I don't see how that would stand up as "proof" in any court of law. You don't even have to have a dog to register it with them. Microchip if you want proof! |
Nancy I believe in akc Too but i dont see the harm in registering with the alternatives as proof of ownership. a judge doesnt know or care what the registry registers they would just see it as they bought a yorkie registered with that registry. Not everyone likes to microchip
