Why is the AKC DNA on the pedigree? |
AKC DNA on the sire is on all the paperwork for sires AKC registered that have been used for breeding in order to register that litter produced. A DNA profile is required on the sire only to register a litter produced by that sire. The DNA profile is for the purpose of ensuring that sire is indeed the sire of that litter should there be any doubt about the parentage of the progeny. If the dam is in doubt via the registration number for the dam, the owner of any of the progeny can file a complaint with the AKC who in turn can request the breeder to obtain a DNA profile and one would be provided for the pup to ensure that is indeed the dam.
DNA profiles are NEVER about genetic codes for health issues. Don't be fooled about what they actually are into thinking they ensure health, they do not.
