Mongrels with a pedigree?

Self selected matings... so how does the bitch owner know which dog their bitch was with and what if she was having some naughty fun with several dogs?
How can you get a pedigree then? do you fill in the sires details as sam up the road and bob over the park and rover from the pub? Could be quite messy and only the bitches details could be recorded accurately assuming you knew her ancestory otherwise the mind boggles at how you would write the pedigree at all.

Will they DNA the puppies to work out dogs the bitches pups came from? Bitches can hold to more than one dog.

Maybe the pedigree will read:
Sire Sam/Bob/Rover
Dam Belle

Sires pedigree
Grandsire: Bob/Sam/Rover/ Max
Grand-dam: Sally/Jenny/Bella/Daisy

Dams pedigree:
Grandsire: Max/Sam/Bobby/Rocky
Grand-dam: Maxine/Molly/Bailey/unknown?

Could get very unwieldy. However if you think you know then surely the matings are not 'self selected' by the dogs?

I would especially like to take the opportunity to congratulate all of our breeders for their immense passion and love for the canine breed, without whom, the continuation of breeds with such strong, healthy bloodlines would surely diminish.

" continuation of  breeds" ? - there would be NO breeds at all using this method ....completely bonkers !!!

Well a pedigree is just a record of the dogs ancestry so yes, any creature can have a pedigree, but as has been said total lunacy.

Here we go again, another or maybe even linked to the 'other' registration company based in Manchester who is so loved by the puppy farmers and commercial breeders who can register puppies with anonymity (registration of litters by breeders are not in the public domain for scrutiny). What are the breeders getting for £8.00 per puppy, a piece of paper they refer to as a pedigree to give to the unsuspecting purchaser or dealer dependent upon who they sell their puppies to and when advertiising can refer to their puppies as having a pedigree. If breeder or company  cannot verify the authenticity of the history of the puppy then it is pointless. 

The puppy purchaser is then offered a pedigree, a piece of paper that is refered to by the breeder or dealer (seller) as pedigree that may or maynot be authentic in terms of the puppies family history. In effect they are being conned unless the breeder or seller can without any doubt verify the said puppies family history. Wake up public you are getting duped once more by these money making companies and the breeders that support them.   

I wouldn't bother trying to work out all the implications, Polly, it is simply a exercise to extract money from people like any other scam just with a better looking website than most.

Agree Stooge no substance at all, you could even call it a scam. £28 per dog which I think is to pay for the shiney glossy folder.

I feel so, so sorry for the GP, how many times do we see puppy comes with 'pedigree papers' and they are duped into believing it is KC reg, now it will say Kennel Pedigree papers with pup, so misleading, poor, poor, people out there.

Our philosophy is natural breeding - free from man-made breed standards - inspired by Charles Darwin's well-known Theory Of Evolution.

What!! Natural breeding, what the heck is that? Let all our dogs go back to the wild and that will be natural breeding, everything else is man induced, whether you decide to mate your dog to the same breed of breed standard, the same breed not to breed standard or a sire of different breed it is still not a natural choice, the closest thing to a natural choice is if dog 'a' escapes and mates with dog 'b', but there is nothing even natural about that, that is just a desperate mating with whatever comes along as in a 'natural' as nature intended pack only the dogs of status are the 'natural' breeding mates.

What a load of......................

All I can say once again is poor, poor GP looking for a pup, the KC truly need to get their finger out and advertise far better so that the GP know what they are supposed to be buying.

It would be nice to think many of the public will be smart enough to use their Google to check out their salubrious address :)

Does anybody recognise the names Peter Jones or Alec Rogers as they are named as director and company sec. No mention of Isabella Greene who is named as the 'Cheif' Exec

The only naturally breeding dogs are the Australian dingo and maybe the Feral Canaan's etc.

Dogs are not natural they are a domesticated animal developed by man.

Just had a look at the insurance they are pushing - £200 a year more for about half the cover i have for Zuma with Axa
