In the US the only reputable dog association is the AKC. In Canada there is the CKC. There is also a ckc registry in the US that is worthless.
Most people who show dogs and win have their photos taken at the show with the judge and ribbons. I would not accept a photo of ribbons as evidence of the quality of a breeders dogs. The pedigree would be the first thing to look at. Some breeders put their show photos on their websites.
I have ribbons that I won years ago with my cats. People can get ribbons from the same places that the various associations buy theirs. |
