Identify from [Birth Paper]:

Birth paper is just a small piece of paper. For many golden retrievers in kennels with a price of less than 20,000 yuan, sellers only provide birth certificates, which are issued by the new owners themselves. There is a fee to apply for a pedigree certificate.

So as a novice in raising children, the birth certificate that is most likely to be touched first is the birth certificate that is most likely to be faked~

The new birth certificate does not indicate the certificate numbers of the dog’s parents, which makes it easier for scammers to deceive newbies. The new owner is deceived into saying that the puppy is the direct son of a certain champion, when in fact it is the grandson or even the great-grandson of a certain champion... Anyway, the money has already been paid before the new owner gets the dog. Even if there is something wrong with it later and the scammer gets the money, Why should I care about you?

How can we know that the parentage of the puppy corresponding to the birth certificate is indeed what the seller said?

In fact, the birth certificate of each puppy has a birth certificate number. Enter the CKU official website and click the query box on the right, select the birth certificate query column, enter the birth certificate number and identification code to find relevant information. The certificate name and certificate number of the dog's parents will be displayed. You can then enter the parent certificate number Enter it into the dog query and check if it is what the seller said.

In addition, the process of exchanging a birth certificate for a pedigree certificate is also a way to prove the authenticity of the birth certificate. To renew a pedigree certificate, you need to send the chip barcode and birth certificate back to the headquarters of the Dog Breed Association for review and replacement after completing the chip. If the birth certificate is a fake birth certificate, the review will fail, let alone getting a pedigree certificate. Now...

By the way, unless the new parent is familiar with the puppy seller or trusts the seller enough and can hang the certificate in the seller's name without transferring the certificate (in this way, the certificate will be sent to the address left by the seller in the association), otherwise it is recommended to register as a new member. , hang the certificate in your own name, so that after the certificate comes out, it will be sent directly to you~

Identification from [chip]:

CKU Association’s partner hospitals have dedicated chip scanners. For dogs that have completed the chip certificate at the seller’s side, you can take the dog directly to the partner hospital The hospital scans the chip code to see if the chip code matches the chip code shown on the certificate.

Identification from [Pedigree Certificate]:

I have seen several kennels deceive sellers, falsely claiming that a sire that has not competed and is not a registered champion is a registered champion, and a puppy is fooled into being a son of a registered champion. Sell ​​at a high price...

The vast majority of those who prepare to raise a family are novices. They know little about double bloodlines and cannot understand the bloodline certificates. They just believe whatever the seller brags about. Therefore, many people are fooled, and they have even been deceived for several years. There are still not a few people who still believe... Ping'an's mother has really met such a dog friend.Can only... be silent.

Having already raised it, there is no practical significance in pursuing these matters anymore. But for those new people who are preparing to raise children, this knowledge can be learned to help them choose to use it in the future.

For example, look at this:

As you can see from the above, words like CH appear in many genealogies, and "CH." means registered champion.

If a non-champion puppy is said to be a direct line to a champion, then only small kennels will do this. Therefore, the champion must be a domestic Chinese champion. Champions registered in the CKU association will not be displayed unless they have their own association. The reason for "CH" is that the words CH. CN appear, which means China's login champion. If the seller clearly tells you that the puppy’s father or mother is China’s registered champion, but there are no signs such as CH. CN in the parent column on the pedigree certificate, then congratulations, you have been deceived~

Will there be a situation where CKU does not display the abbreviation of the full login country, and even omits the word "CH", even though it is the login champion?

But those are limited to imported foreign login champions. In the past, CKU did not have a harmonious relationship with the American AKC. Many of the American champions, Canadian champions, Brazilian champions, etc. introduced by countries such as the United States and Canada, under the AKC association, were cut off by CKU from the titles of these champion countries in English. The abbreviation... Some even cut off the "CH" title... Many imported foreign champion dogs suffer from the title of CKU certificate, such as:

The multi-national champion "Thiago", the CKU certificate is named "CH FREEDOM OF GOLDEN SPIRIT". Only "CH" is displayed, and the abbreviations of the countries that won the championship are not displayed. The CKU certificate number is "CKU-111002238/08" ;

“Simon”, the champion of the United States, Canada and China, has a CKU certificate called “EVENING STAR’S MORE LIKELY THAN NOT”. Even the word “CH” is not displayed, and the CKU certificate number is “CKU-111018766/15”;

Henry, the champion of the United States and Canada, has a CKU certificate named "CH JBG’S OH HENRY”, the abbreviation of the landing champion country is not shown, and the foreign certificate number is “TG203753” (this one has not been introduced, so it does not have a CKU certificate number);

There are many examples of foreign champions who do not have complete title registration in CKU, so I will not list them all.

But remember, these types of dogs with incomplete names are all foreign registration champions linked to AKC. The price of puppies starts at least 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. If you spend so much money to buy a puppy, you will definitely find a new owner. It is also a reliable and well-known kennel, and it is not like an unscrupulous small kennel. Those who boast the most are the Chinese login champions, and there will be no failure to show up~

It is said that at the end of 2016, CKU finally reached interoperability with the American AKC. I hope that the foreign champion sires introduced under the AKC association in the future will no longer be deprived of their titles by CKU...

Identify from the [Dog Breeds Association official website]:

Continue to take CKU as an example (there is no way, Ping An’s mother’s children’s certificates are all under CKU, I only know this better).

First of all, it proves that searching on the official website is useless for those who want to set up certificates. It can be found out. Useful for false evidence. For example, the scammer made a pedigree certificate, which stated who the father was, who the mother was, who the ancestors were, and the certificate number of the puppy. The new parent can log in to the official website with the puppy certificate number and check to see if the displayed puppy’s date of birth, gender, number of littermates, and information about parents and grandparents are consistent with what the seller told you? Also compare the certificate numbers of your parents and grandparents to see if they are consistent.

If inconsistent information is found during the verification process, or even no dog information can be found at all, then... haha...

If they are consistent, it depends on the name of the puppy breeder and the name of the dog's mother and owner. But now many of them are in the name of friends, because to register a kennel yourself, you have to pay more than 1,000 kennel fees + professional membership fees every year. It’s okay to register a kennel for breeding, but it’s not worth it if you’re domestic or a small number of breeders. It often happens that the kennel is in the name of a friend. These can be checked by yourself and the seller.

Identify from [K9data (foreign ancestry information network)]:

Check the genealogy information of CKU with the genealogy information in K9data, because the certificate number will be indicated in the K9 genealogy, so it is convenient to check them one by one. Check and confirm.

Furthermore, CKU likes to swallow up the title of registration champion of the United States and other countries under the AKC Association. Sometimes it is difficult to tell whether what the seller says is true or false. You can find more qualifications and genealogy information from K9data, and you can even scroll all the way up. It can be traced back to foreign blood banks, and who are the ancestors even a hundred years ago.

Distinguish from [whether to identify dog ​​offspring]:

As domestic dogs, we also spend high prices to buy "pedigrees", naturally for the reliability of the "pedigree", the purity of the dog breed, and the stability of the genes.

The Golden Retriever itself is a dog breed imported from abroad. It has only been developed in China for more than ten years, but it has been developed abroad for hundreds of years. Do we still need to compare the unique "Golden Retriever" created locally with other people's orthodox Golden Retrievers? ?

Just imagine how difficult and expensive it was to import a purebred golden retriever with a formal pedigree and registration ten years ago. There were only a few famous dogs imported, and an expert could basically tell them. A purebred imported female dog will only give birth to so many babies in her lifetime. Is it possible that the number of golden retrievers in China can be reached by just relying on a few of them to produce puppies for each other? Some people retorted that it’s not necessarily the golden retrievers imported from abroad that are pure. We also have golden retrievers in China, so why don’t they match the local golden retrievers in China?

Because of the reasons mentioned above, "the cost of introduction is too high" and "there are too few golden retriever breeders", a few years later the first batch of "identification dogs" began to emerge, which is the "generation" mentioned earlier in our article. dog". The requirements for identifying a dog are very simple, as long as the appearance combines the characteristics of golden retrievers. That is to say, as long as it looks like a golden retriever, it can become an identification dog. In this way, the team of golden retrievers has been expanded at an extremely fast speed until it reaches its current grand scale.

To this day, many domestic kennels have been breeding dogs for several generations, and traces of ancestors' identification of dogs can still be found.

One is a "pedigree dog" whose ancestors were imported from abroad, the pedigree is close to the foreign pedigree bank, and the ancestors can be traced all the way back. The other is a dog whose ancestors had identification dogs in the previous generations, but there are large gaps in the pedigree within a few generations. "Pedigree dog", which one would you choose?

I believe that parents with sufficient budget will give priority to the first true "blood dog". Um...yes, if you have enough budget...the price of a certified dog will definitely be much more affordable than a real pedigree dog. So there are advantages and disadvantages in every aspect╮(╯▽╰)╭

The following are several screenshots of the pedigree information for identifying dog offspring, taken from the CKU official website for reference:

Of course, there are a few exceptions, and not all dogs with a blank on the CKU are identification dogs.

For example, the famous Milber, yes, that American champion. Many kennel breeders now are his grandchildren or evento great-grandchildren. For such a famous dog with golden retriever pedigree, which everyone knows about pedigree, the pedigree certificate on CKU actually uses an identification dog. When Ping An’s mother saw it, she felt like she had swallowed a mouthful of food. That kennel doesn't take this seriously.

This was almost ten years ago, and Mepoli passed away in 2008. The kennel where Mebori is located also has White Christmas and Robin. These three famous dogs have indeed made a lot of contributions to domestic golden retrievers. At that time, the pedigree circle was dominated by the NGKC Association, and CKU had just begun. This is probably why the kennels of Meboli did not pay attention to it and made it an appraisal dog. Because foreign champion dogs are imported, they must be replaced with local pedigree certificates before they can compete. When the certificate is replaced, the original copy of the introduction certificate needs to be handed over. Maybe the NG Association took away the original documents at that time, so it was difficult for the CKU Association to register. Fortunately, there is a DNA sample on Mepoli's CKU certificate, otherwise who knows if he is a descendant of this famous dog.

The official website and customer service of the kennel of these three dogs have confirmed this situation.

CKU certificate name: Maverick of Superstar Kennel

Certificate number: CKU-111000662/06

Or if you registered with a foreign certificate number in the early stage, it will show that the genealogy is complete (not done yet)

CKU registered by AMBERAC using foreign certificate number: CH (AM) AMBERAC WILDWOOD POKER FACE

Foreign registration number: RG-05-0008184-ROK

So how to identify whether it is an identification dog or a foreign champion dog imported from abroad? If you have applied for an identification dog certificate at CKU in the early stage?

The method of judgment is to have DNA and NGKC certificate (there were many NG racing dogs in the early days of China), and be a household name. The kennel was a well-known kennel at that time, and the breeding dogs were specially imported from abroad. kind of level. In addition, the owner name of the kennel shown on the CKU official website as the owner name of the dog, and the kennel name shown as the suffix are the kennel where the dog is located, and all requirements are met.

DNA paternity test/site analysis:

The previous points can only be determined by inference, but the final DNA paternity test is the real final decision.

For example, both parents are Golden Retrievers, and have DNA files on CKU. After passing the paternity test, if they meet the requirements of direct blood relatives, of course they are double blood~

Furthermore, starting from 2017, it is mandatory to archive blood samples, which will make it much easier for parents who want to do paternity testing in the future~

And if it is a kitten puppy, unfortunately, except for DNA paternity testing, none of the previous methods can check it.Even if it comes out, the chip won’t work, because the chip has been faked...

So, to be honest, the most reliable way to choose a true "pedigree" is to go back to the beginning and find a reliable kennel or family that is worthy of your trust.
