AKC Announces New Program for Mixed Breeds Just wondering how everyone feels about this...? American Kennel Club - AKC Announces New Program for Mixed Breeds |
I think it is great news! All breeds are from somewhere & now all can be included & not ostracized for being a mix! |
I think this issue was discussed on another thread. I think its a great idea. All the mixes must be spayed/neutered to participate and will not be allowed in conformation showing. But it will get families involved the the "dog world", so to speak. Who knows, maybe this will turn a childs dream into a reality. Maybe being a handler or trainer. If nothing else, this new program will be educational. |
I have mixed feelings (pardon the pun...lol). I think it is great to recognize the greatness in any dog regardless of pedigree, however, what worries me is the fact that these dogs will receive an AKC #ID which many BYB will probably take advantage. To me it's almost like saying the AKC is now on the same level as CKC or any other pet registry. In all honesty I think it is probably a ploy by some AKC big wig to rake in more money. |
I think it's fine. They will hold their events seperate from the purebred. Should this be on the General Discussion List? |

good I like the idea. |
I didnt see anything wrong with it untill I saw a mixed breed byb on here saying mixed breed pups could now be a akc registered. I think it could end up being a selling point for them |
