anyone can create any registry and it doesn't matter.  its the quality of the dog and its background that is important.  I could care less what registry if any a dog is with.  Most shouldn't be registered as quality anyways.  I think a dog should have to pass genetic testing and physical traits before it could be registered.  That would eliminate alot of the backyard breeders who are breeding for money.  PEOPLE think because a dog is registered anything its something special.... its NOT!! Its a piece of paper that's all.
 
At least the AQHA American Quarter Horse is doing something.  As of 2007 they will no longer register HYPP postive horses which means you darn well better test the parents before you breed if you expect ot have a registered quarter horse.

PS Back yard breeders never identify themselves as BYB - and puppy millers never admit to being a puppy mill.  They all say they are trying to improve the breed.  A lot of people who breed don't have a pot to piss in financially and keep saying that they can't afford this or that but they are still breeding puppies... makes you know why ... its because they sell them and make money inspite of what they say.
 
I call a spade a spade

> whether
CKC is good or bad depends on who you are talking to, lol. I prefer the
AKC, but am considering dual registering my AKC's because it seems most
people are wanting
CKC these days.

So maybe your baby didn't come from the best of places. My first chi
didn't either. I was in 8th grade, and he came from a puppy mill. I didn't
know then what I know now. Nonetheless, he gave me 16 wonderful years and
I wouldn't have taken anything for him. Now that you have your baby,
forget what his past was and focus on the wonderful future you have with
him!
:-)

My chis love to play with my bigger dogs. In fact, I have a Husky/wolf mix
that they adore! Like you, I never leave them unattended...why take
chances, they can be accidently harmed....but at the same time, I don't
worry a bit when the chis are outside playing with the big dogs. The only
thing I worry about is Ginger trying to take Barley out of the yard...they
both know better!! lol. She is one that don't mind anything and loves to
get the others in trouble, lol.
