AKC inspection

[bjh]

[QUOTE=kelkiss5;1829013]I think that is such a great idea, I have never heard of it here. It would be so good though. So if you dont mind me asking, what do they come out looking for???./QUOTE]

Here are AKC rules and regulations for breeders:
http://www.akc.org/rules/record_keeping.cfm

On AKC's website there is a down loadable form called "Dog ownership & Breeding Records". This form needs to be filled out for each AKC dog on your premises.

Im sorry that someone feels they have to be so mean and cold hearted. We all need to feel sorry for that person, because they obviously are very unhappy. Dont let them rain on your parade. Linda

Kimberly, never worried whether or not you would pass. Since I have personally been in your home at different times, many times as a drop-in, know how you keep your records and the care you give your "kids", knew you would pass with flying colors.

CONGRATS!!! I had NO doubt that you would pass!!!!!!!!!!! I was on pins and needles on my first inspection as I didnt know what to expect and had heard horrible things about inspections. My inspector was NOT nice and VERY to the point!!! But I passed anyway.

I'm glad everything went well.
As for that nasty person.
What goes around comes around....Rrrrrrrrrr

I'm very happy for you that all went well and hopefully, those people that have nothing better to do than be ugly will get a life I won't hold my breath...but here's to hoping

I have never been inspected by AKC but I have been inspected by my local SPCA for the last 4 years in a row. They do not look at records, just that the dogs are fed and have fresh water and in suitable living conditions, etc. and they do show without warning. For AKC purposes I keep copies of everything...copies of past dogs I've owned registrations, copies of signed health guarantees, filled in and signed pup applications when they go to their new homes, I keep all my breeding and mating records online on AKC.org but I never knew I should have the downloadable form for each individual adult I have!!! Learn something new everyday...!!! Thank you!!!

Congrats Kimberly! JEALOUSY that big GREEN monster! I cannot understand people!

I also just had my first inspection. All went well. BUT I didn't use the downloadable form either. I just used the form that comes with the litter registrations to put the buyers and pup info on , and then stapled on my contracts with info such as DOB, parents, etc. I keep all my breeding dates and due dates on a calander. He gave me a green book with all the forms so I have to go and fill out and when I breed I have to write in on the forms and not just my calander. No big deal. I have a question for him about DNA. I bought a in 2003 pup and used him as a stud later and had 3 litters that yr so I DNA'd him. I got the DNA papers back and all seemed ok with no problems. A few yrs later I got a report that my studs sire was wrong. Now all my sire's pups AKC papers were going to be on hold and could be pulled if they didn't get the right info and DNA on the other possible sire to my pup I bought. IT WAS A MESS and I had buyer calling me to ask what was going on. I had sold 1 male to be used as a stud and they had sold pups. I asked AKC why they didn't check my pups DNA against his sires DNA ( on record) to see if there was a problem BEFORE they sent my mine and I bred him thinking everything was ok. Seems pretty stupid to even do DNA unless they are going to check it to make sure it's correct. He told me they are supposed to do that at AKC. When it happened, AKC told me that they don't do that and if I wanted it checked it would be a extra charge I asked if there was anything in writing or on their website about this issue and he told me no. Does anyone know if they do check it before a incorrect DNA Cert. is sent out?

Congrats Kimberly! You have beautiful dogs!

[Yorkiesforever]

I am glad you passed your inspections even though I have never been to your place. But I have considered you to be one of the upmost breeders on here I can't believe this person is being so vindictive but I suppose when you don't have anything better to do with your life this is how you spend your days.

Do you know if your males sire had his DNA on file already when your male was DNA'ed? With AKC you do not have to submit DNA on a sire unless he sires 3 litters in one year or 5 litters life time. Could it be possible that your dogs sire just was not DNA tested until much latter? I know this is frustrating to you because the breeder of your dog was careless. This does go to show that what AKC is doing is working, as frustrating as it may seem. I can only image how overwhelmed AKC must be and it is possible with all the dogs that they deal with that they just do ransom comparison's of DNA or they might just be years behind. I hope you get your problem resolved.

I was in Kim's home 3 days in November, while in Portland picking up my Poker. She takes excellent care of her dogs and never could anyone doubt that if they had been there. Love her yorkies and would give anyone that asked an excellent reference on Kim's yorkies
You go girl, some people are just sick!
Keep up the good work.

[lilbuster]

Never doubted you would have passed. I will always be grateful for having helped me with Rylee this passed fall. You are a valuable source of information and a great mentor! Been avoiding YT lately....there's a weird vibe in the air!

[feminvstr]

Thanks everyone for your support, you all are too kind...loving the yorkies is the easy part, raising their pups is a blessing...thank god Karma is alive and well, it has finally come full circle!
