| My baby is ACA. I like the registry. I do know though that AKC is the best but i think ACA is pretty decent. |

| Aca Okay, I gotta problem with ACA..I have read the site. It gives the pet owner alot of false security. First off you take you pet to the vet to get a health certification that it is free of genetic health probelms. It states the vet looks at the heart, eyes and teeth to determine there are no genetic defects. This is a JOKE. No vet can look at a dog and know what the DNA has programmed into that dog. The vet can say.."Your puppy has healthy eyes, teeth and a heart"...but that is no guarantee that puppy will not carry a gene to develop a problem in it's life..or pass a defect through breeding to offspring. They state..."the ACA automatcially tracks all aspects of the genetic health of your dog"...not possible..and common sense tells you that without a vet degree. Look under the section...Find a Puppy..they list Pet shops/brokers and wholesale dealers. Dogs with papers ACA may be wonderful pets..but ACA web site is not honest, so what does that make a breeder who uses it? |
