Amstaff, Pit Bull and Staffy Pedigree
It is a kind of custom that
the dog breeding can be conducted in two directions: as kennel breeding
and as spontaneous breeding, th so called "yard" breeding according to
the principle: "we bred our dog with the one next door, it seems to be
of the same breed".
And while the kennels (we mean PROFESSIONAL kennels)
thoroughly choose mates for breeding according to the dog's exterior,
origin, even temper and all available information about several
generations of the dog and their illnesses, unstable psyche, exterior
deficiencies, the amateur breeders just mate their dogs without pausing
to think.

An if these doggies, the fruits of their "good
work" become heroes of society columns, who is to blame the breed's
reputation has been injured once again? No document, no stigma, there is
only exterior likeness with a certain breed. And while snappish
spaniels are not a problem, it is much worse with the Staffies or
Rottweilers. WHAT is PEDIGREE? As a matter of fact it is a piece of
paper with a hologram, which contains information about five generations
of the dog's ancestors. But.. The difference of a pedigree pup and a
non-pedigree one is not the price of the document alone. The presence of
a five-generation list witnesses that all ancestors of this puppy were
accepted for breeding, as they have no exterior deficiencies and - above
all - behave adequate, because they have been expertized at more than
one dog show. The kennel club direction keeps records of its breeding
activity, examines the offspring, analyses the dogs' behavior and exterior.
Due to these measures the kennels can achieve
better quality of the bred dogs taking into account all the pros and
cons of different mating couples.

What is the advantage of ADOPTING a
KENNEL DOG? First of all a canine specialist supervises the offspring
since the very birth. The dog breeders is being advised to all
dog-related issues, including nutrition, disease prophylaxis and many
more. As a result 30-day-old pups are fully developed and have normal
weight. The puppies are accustomed to diverse nutrition or to dry food
selected by the breeder. So when the pup is handed in to the new owner,
usually no big problems arise. After another examination in the age of
45 days, the pup is ready to move in its new home. Every dog owner can
be consulted on education and training issues, register for dog shows,
i.e. get all needed support which the owner of a pup void of documents
is deprived of. So is it worth saving money? Won't the later expenses
exceed the price of the puppy? Won't the dog "gladden" you with behavior
inappropriate for its breed? Think twice before you roll the dice.
