As one of the people who usually helps her to get info, often those that help out will find a dog in show results that she doesn't have and then can track them through the AKC website. This only works if all the pups are registered though. Same if some dogs have had testing done through OFA.

@misspodhradsky:

She gets her info from people. So if someone had, say one of the puppies, they might have sent the info on it. that person may not have known of the other dog. OR it could be the breeders…buuut if there is missing info, im betting its not the breeder.

That's interesting because I never sent her information on Blaze. And if it was the breeder who gave her the information, it seems strange that she would have forgotten about one of the dogs in the litter. Hmmm….

All you have to do is go to the site, get the email address and send her the missing information.

Thanks, I'll do that.

Sally gets much of her information from AKC registrations, so if pups from the litter are registered, she can pick up that information. Not all breeders make sure all the pups in the litter are registered, they may give the papers to the new owners and tell them to send them in. However, many pet owners do not.

I send in all the registrations on my pups myself to make sure they are all registered.

We got a Limited Registration form from Blaze's breeder. I did send it in, so that's most likely where Sally got her information. I know one other pup from Blaze's litter went to a pet home, so that's probably the one that's missing from her list.

I'm happy to say that Kipawa (FoPaws Man in Motion) is on the database. Thanks to Therese (FoPaws) for registering the whole litter! It's great to be able to check out all of Kipawa's family.

Makes sense. Glad you found things out

Very nice! Great to hear! I love when breeders do it themselves so the info is all there. I know if i ever started breeding, id register my dogs myself too so that i knew they were there and trackable.

You can also send in pedigree information for non AKC registered Basenjis. It is important that these are in the database since it is difficult-virtually impossible to obtain this information from the registration companies and/or the breeders.

Sally is making such a nice job!

Here only one breeder was sending info, now there are 2 more and bunch of puppies that some friends send to Sally, will be super nice that she can get the whole mexican basenji map, but sadly a bunch of people here have breeding their dogs and not registed at all.
