Yea I dont know why, other than I was told by compliance in the AKC that only producing dogs are kept after the death of the dogs. I always report the deaths. You are actually supposed to.
Thank you cali- and your babies are beautiful!

That's the very reason I asked these questions, which some posters chose to take the wrong way!!!

Georgous dogs. Were they AKC champions or shown under another registry? Their names aren't showing up on the AKC registration lookup. Maybe it's just the spelling because the collie didn't show up either.

Every dog, dead or alive, bred or not, titled or not that has been registered with AKC (at least since the 70's is listed on the AKC dog lookup.

But the spelling, spacing and punctuation must be exact for it to show up!

In addition, the dog could have been registered and shown under a different registry than AKC so naturally it wouldn't be there.

Rather than attack the messenger, why not check out the facts for yourself.

and Electra dam is AKC registers, her granddam is an AKC champion, and her brother is AKC registered, and Electras are getting processed. and they are NOT listed with EXACT spelling.

You can also look them up by registration number. If they're registered they are there. Registered dogs, even pets, don't just mysteriously drop off the list for any reason. The only reason a dog might not be found with the registration number is if the owner and all their dogs have been suspended from AKC.

AKC keeps those records in order to provide pedigrees and other information that is constantly requested from them. They are available to anyone with a computer or even by mail and telephone.

To be on the lighter side of things. Mikki since you're new why don't you tell us about yourself? You're interested in showing and such, do you have any dogs you're planning on starting? I looked at your profile, but you don't have anything listed yet. You can go to the "general" part at the bottom of the main page since a lot of people read that I guess. That's where I was told to go to introduce myself. Come join in the fun and tell us about your pets!

They're beautiful dogs, borzoimom, may they rest in peace.

Mikki, must you hound everyone with your questions? Frankly, I don't think it's any of your business.

Yes, tell us about yourself Mikki. You're so interested in other people so why can't you share about yourself and the animals you own?

I don't believe that every dog is listed on there -- if you check, there is an alternate way of searching for the dogs. You click on the breed and type in the kennel name or part of the dog's name -- any dog with that kennel name or part of the name will show up. I put in Attra and Visa's mother and sister showed up.

However, there are some kennel names I have tried (including the #1 kennel in North Americna, like I had stated) and nothing showed up. Some of them did show up, but only a few -- which doesn't make sense since alot of these breeders had several litters, and all would have been registered with AKC (and most breeders WILL register the individual dogs themselves).

I believe that borzoimom was correct in that they only retain records for five years. After all, why would only the litters in the last five years produced by some kennels show up?

Was the dog's name perhaps Steigerwald Chance de Berger?

On the back of my picture is very close to that. Sorry trying to read the ink. I never bred her so I dont have another record.
