Some, but not all, of our puppies are registered with the American Kennel Club (AKC), the largest and most prominent registry. Not all of our dogs are registered because it is up to the breeder’s discretion to register them. Registered puppies come with a certificate of pedigree, meaning that their purebred lineage and family history has been marked into the registry company’s studbook. This does not determine the quality or health of the puppy, but only certifies that the puppy is the offspring of a named, registered purebred pairing.
