| I will only purchase AKC dogs, I'm not saying the dogs are necessarily better, but it is my preference. Martha |

| I would only buy AKC or CKC(Canadian Kennel Club) only. All of the other "alternative" registries are pretty much bogus and were created by mills because of AKCs unnanounced inspections and DNA requirements. Alot of the "breeders" that register with the "alternative" registries are mills and bybrs that lost their AKC privledges. It is now a venue to get breeding rights on superior dogs that they purchased with limited registration from AKC breeders as the "other" registeries do not abide by AKC rules.

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I too would only purchase AKC dogs, I consider the other registries "paper" registries and meaningless since they will register any dog without proof. Many also register mix breeds, what's the point of that? I support the AKC because they are the only registry that does unannounced routine inspections and DNA testing. When the a breeder is suspended from the AKC he often looks to one of the alternative registries, and is easily accepted. See this link for more information on registries. Registries Quote:
On a side note, there are many threads in the forum referring to the Teresita Hughes case, and the cruelty she inflicted on her breeding dogs. She was thrown out of the AKC over 6 years ago, but sells her dogs CKC with no problem. For more information, see my signature, and sign the petition if you haven't already.
