there are 2 CKCs that is why I had asked which one. continental does not have a good repuation I dont know why though, the Canadian kennel club however I personally consder to be WAY better then AKC, canadian KC does not support puppy mills for example AKC does, because thats is where they get most of there income, that is one of the reasons canada has by far fewer puppy mills then the states, AKC regster's by picture which causes many problems, for example if the the dog looks liek the breed but is a mutt they will be accepted but if the dog is purbred but does not look like what they consider the breed is "supposed" to look, they will be denied. get the idea?
