It is the sole responsibility of the prospective owner to visit the seller and determine if the pup meets his expectations. The club can assist prospective owners in locating breeders who may have pups but cannot guarantee either the health or quality of the dogs in its registry. Therefore dogs whose sire and/or dam are not pure breed, are ineligible for registration.Ī Although records of the parentage of thousands of dogs registered annually are kept by the club, the PCCI is not directly involved in the sale of dogs. Basically, this indicates that the father and mother of the dog are registered and that their father and mother were likewise registered. It is internationally recognized as the only registering body for pedigreed dogs in the country and is an active member of two international canine organizations, the 90 member Federation Cynologique International (FCI) based in Brussels, Belgium.Ī Purebred means that the sire (father) and dam (mother) of a dog are members of a recognized breed and that the ancestry of a dog consists of the same breed over many generations.
A The PCCI is a nonstock, nonprofit, service-oriented corporation established for the primary purpose of handling the registration of the growing number of pure-bred dogs in the country.
