You know, I was thinking about it. I would be totally happy if we could breed our dual registered (AKC) girls to an AKC boy, register the pups with AKC only and not face punishment from CKCSC USA. It is silly to think that the AKC people are going to beat a path to CKCSC to re-register their dogs. If that is the goal, it will fail because there is no reason for them to do so. All I want is to be able to take my AKC girls to AKC boys and register the litters AKC. Same with my boys. I want to be able to breed my AKC dogs to other AKC bitches without fear of punishment. We all seem to be losing sight of the fact that we all own AKC dogs that we can't breed to dogs of their own registry. Myra
