Hi Elaine, It sounds like the breeders of your two little dogs may be the ones that did not register their 'moms' with the AKC or else they were bought and bred after the AKC stud book had closed. IMO, I don't believe two little dogs are sufficient reason to reopen the stud book when there had been a 3 year window of opportunity. If I am remembering correctly, the only time stud books have been reopened have been when the genetic health of the breed was in jeopardy and the reopening was the only viable avenue to save the breed. I don't believe that this is the case with the Cavalier as all Cavaliers around the world that are registered with their recognized Kennel Clubs are eligible for AKC registration.

They acted as if this were a bogus puppy mill registry. ========================================================= "Magic Commands": to stop receiving mail for awhile, click here and send the email: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?body=SET%20CKCS-L%20NOMAIL to start it up gain click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?body=SET%20CKCS-L%20MAIL E-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] for assistance.
