 pedigree
A pedigree is only as honest as the breeders behind it. The only way to know 100%, is to have both parents DNA'ed...but it will be on your dime..AKC does not run routine tests unless for buyers unless there is a dispute as to who the sire actually is..then if it is found to all be correct, and the breeder is not at fault... you, the pup owner will have to pay all the fees..around $500 to start.
These things are not worth it to me..I alway say, "cut your losses and get out"...you can spend a fortune and much time with these kind of problems..deal with reputable breeders who stand behind their peds..and a reputable breeder would refund your money if a pup is not what they say it is...that goes for parentage, qaulity, size, whatever..
