And yes there are bad breeders that will breed other than purebred, use registration numbers from their registered purebred dogs that actually are not the true sire and/or dam and register the litter than way. Unfortunately the Canadian Kennel Club or the American Kennel Club will not know, put through the registration and pups get registered. The only way to find out if the sire is the sire and dam is on the dam as per the paperwork, is to question the validity of the paperwork and the registration bodies can ask the breeder for DNA tests that take a cheek swab from sire, cheek swab from dam compared to cheek swab from progeny. It should be a match if the paperwork is right for sire and dam, however, the mutts may be further back in the pedigree.
This is why if you are buying, know your breeder and it is false, there are not lots of breeders doing this except perhaps byb's might be. Most show breeders would not, reputable breeders definitely would not ever even dream of it. |
Sounds like to me perhaps your "breeder" got caught with her hands in the cookie jar, and she is trying to justify this unacceptable behavior by saying, "They all do it".....WRONG!!
