So we got Scoobers at 5 months old...I assume he was dumped because he didn't sell as he is the most freakish undesirable result of a yorkie miniature schnauzer hybrid possible.
I didn't realize this was an older program through AKC-I can just imagine BYB and the like misinforming buyers about how a designer or hybrid pup can have some AKC acceptance as both parents were AKC...guess it's been a nonissue so far since it's not new. Thankfully, although I'm super interested now wish I knew if Scoobers parents were both AKC I'd love to have him participate-he's a neurotic hot mess but he love doing our pretend agility in the backyard with his boy (my son Milo) we have a ramp, tunnel and some jumps we made complete with mini cones-its hilarious! |
There will always be those type of breeders, now they call the registered, by the registry is the CKC, not be confused with the reputable Canadian CKC. That's why it's important that people register their dogs with the AKC, that will keep breeders honest. If a breeder says "No need to register, you aren't going to breed or show" you can be sure something fishy is going on.
