IMPORTANCE OF A PEDIGREE
PEDIGREE/PEDIGREES ARE STACKED IN THESE PHOTOS FOR THE SHOW RING/CONFORMATION RING/ANOTHER WORDS NOT STANDING NATURAL/STRAIGHT BACKS WHEN IN NATURAL POSITION!
IF A PERSON WANTS PUREBRED,PURE-BLOOD LINE,GERMAN HERITAGE OR ANY OTHER TERM TO SATISFY THEIR DESIRE TO OWN A WELL-BRED GSD-IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE PEDIGREE IS A REAL PEDIGREE WITH CAREFUL SELECTION OF EACH BREEDING PAIR FOR MANY GENERATIONS AND NOT JUST A BUNCH OF NAMES, A DOG WITH A LOUSY PEDIGREE BECOMES FULL BLOODED SHEPHERD, A JOKE SPOKEN BETWEEN BREEDERS.
MANY PUPPY BUYERS WANT TO HAVE PROOF THAT THEIR DOG IS A PUREBRED. A PEDIGREE OF A DOG IS A FIRST IMPORTANT POINT TO CONSIDER WHEN CHOOSING A NEW PUPPY. BUT PEDIGREE MEANS VERY LITTLE WHEN A PERSON DOES NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A PEDIGREE. IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THE BUYER LEARNS HOW TO READ A PEDIGREE.
NOT EVERY PEDIGREE IS THE SAME AND SOME PEDIGREES MEAN VERY LITTLE, IF NOTHING AND ARE JUST A BUNCH OF NAMES, LITERALLY JUST A BUNCH OF NAMES WITH ABSOLUTELY NO VALUE. WE'VE SEEN IT. DON'T BE FOOLED BY FANCY NAMES, SUCH AS "OUR CHAMPION SIRE MAXIUMS"OR PRINCESS SOFIE POLICE DOG. THE NAME ARE JUST THAT-WHAT THE OWNERS HAVE NAMED THEIR DOG AND OR NOT A REAL TITLE.
PRINCESS SOFIE POLICE DOG DOES NOT MEAN THIS DOG WAS K9 OR THAT THE DOG HAS ROYAL BLOOD LINES ( WE HAVE ALSO MADE UP THESE NAMES FOR THIS ARTICAL, BUT YOU GET THE IDEA, RIGHT? )
A PUPPY WITH A QUALITY PEDIGREE WILL HAVE SEVERAL GENERATIONS OF HEALTH TESTED , SHOWN AND TITLED DOGS. A BUYER SHOULD BE ABLE TO LOOK UP THE DOGS NAMES ON SEARCH ENGINE- ANY REAL TITLED DOGS WILL HAVE IMAGES/ VIDEOS AND NUMEROUS MENTIONS. IF YOU CANNOT FIND ANY RESULTS ABOUT FIRST SIX DOGS ON A PEDIGREE (PARENTS,GRANDPARENTS) WHILE USING ONLINE SEARCH ENGINE, SUCH AS GOOGLE-THAT'S A BIG RED FLAG- YES NOT EVERY BREEDER POSTS IMAGES OF THEIR DOGS ONLINE, BUT THERE WOULD BE SHOW MENTIONS, TRAIL MENTIONS OR PAGES CREATED BY OTHER USERS ON SPECIALIZED DOG- RELATED WEBSITES, SUCH AS PEDIGREE DATA BASE (USER CREATED) WORKING DOG OR SIMILAR.
A CHAMPION DOG IS A DOG RECEIVING VA1 ON BSZS SO WHEN YOU HEAR CHAMPION LINES-ASK WHAT DO THEY MEAN? HOW MANY VA DOGS ARE ON A PEDIGREE AND HOW FAR ON A PEDIGREE ARE THEY?
REMEMBER ALL TITLES AND HEALTH TESTING CAN BE LOOKED UP.
ALSO. PEDIGREE ALLOWS TO SEE INBREEDING - BREEDING FROM CLOSELY RELATED ANIMALS ESPECIALLY OVER MANY GENERATIONS.
A GOOD BREEDER KNOWS THE CONSEQUENCES OF INBREEDING AND IT IS NOT UNCOMMON TO SEE INLINE BREEDING STARTING AT 3::3 (SHARING THE SAME DOG ON A THIRD LINE- PUPPY IS 0, PARENTS ARE 1, GRANDPARENTS ARE 2 , GREATGRANDPARENTS ARE 3) THIS IS THE CLOSEST INBREEDING ALLOWED) BUT UNFORTUNATELY, THERE ARE REGISTERED PUPPIES THAT ARE PRODUCED BY FATHER & DAUGHTER( 1:2) OR HALF/ FULL SIBLINGS (2::2) NOT ONLY THIS IS NOT UNETHICAL,BUT PERSISTENT INBREEDING HAS PRODUCED AN UNUSALLY HIGH FREQUENCY OF SUFFERERS FROM GENETIC DISEASES AND ABNORMALITIES. FROM THE SV SITE: SINCE 1/1/2015 ACCORDING TO THE BREEDING RULES, AN INBREEDING THAT IS CLOSER THEN 3-3 IS NOT PERMITTED.
WHY IS PEDIGREE IMPORTANT?
PEDIGREE IS IMPORTANT AS IT PROVIDES INFORMATION ON LINEAGE, WHETHER OR NOT EVERY DOG ON THE PEDIGREE IS HEALTH TESTED, SHOWN , TITLED/ MEETS BREED CONFORMATION AND TEMPERAMENT.
QUALITY PEDIGREE IS A MUST IF A PERSON IS SEEKING A PUPPY FOR FUTURE BREEDING, SHOW/SPORT EVENTS OR WANTS A PET THAT MEETS ALL BREED REQUIREMENTS AND IS A FINE REPRESENTATIVE OF ITS BREED.
