Vikki loves the A.P.R.I.
We do too!
A.P.R.I. is the #1 registry
used by professional breeders.
We are proud producers
of companion puppies.
Our puppies are A.P.R.I registered.
We prefer to show our dogs
through the A.P.R.I.
because they believe
that temperament
is just as important
as conformation
We have made the decision
to give our full support
to the A.P.R.I
because they
respect & appreciate
professional breeders.
They value your dog
for the wonderful companion that he is
even if he doesn't have a title.
No dog has ever been more important
than the one that greets you at the door
after a hard day at work.
We could not be more pleased
with the service provided by the A.P.R.I.
They are friendly & efficient
We have always felt
that the health and temperament
of a dog
is more
important
than physical beauty.
We believe our dogs are beautiful,
but they
are also healthy & friendly.
We are very happy
to have found
a purebred registry
that places
emphasis on both
the companion dog and temperament.
We are honored
to be members of
America's Pet Registry, Inc.
This organization places emphasis
on protecting our right
to breed companion dogs
and your right to own a pet.
They deserve to be supported in their efforts.
We are committed to producing
the best puppies possible.
We believe we
can best accomplish this
by registering our dogs with the A.P.R.I.
They care about the welfare
of the A.P.R.I. breeders.
They are friendly and courteous
and they welcome and value
our opinions & experience.
They care about you.
We look
forward to a long and cooperative
relationship with the A.P.R.I.
We know that it is
best decision
for our dogs, puppies and customers.
We hope you
think so too.
 What does this change mean?
As of March 1, 2001,
we began placing
all of our puppies
as A.P.R.I. registered.
We will be using
the same bloodlines
we have produced
in the past.
The dogs we kept back for breeding
from our A.K.C. registered dogs
have only been registered with A.P.R.I.
A.P.R.I. stud service is available.
The A.P.R.I. uses
all of the A.K.C stud books.
Pedigrees will still be
available through the A.P.R.I.
"Free Puppy Program"
America's Pet Registry, Inc.
offers a free puppy program.
The drawing will be held monthly.
The winner of the drawing is reimbursed
for the price of the puppy
up to a maximum of $1200.00.
In order to qualify for the free puppy,
the owner must register the dog
within 60 days of purchase
as per the purchase invoice.
A copy of the purchase invoice
must accompany the registration application.
At A.P.R.I. shows
dogs are judged against
the standard ~
not against each other.
They either meet the standard ~
or they don't.
Each dog is evaluated
by a panel of three judges
in six different categories.
The point system consists
of points being awarded
on a scale of
one through five
in each category.
Each judge can award
a possible total
of thirty points.
Dogs must earn
a total of
eighty-one points
at three different shows
to earn the title
of Champion.
Additionally,
each judge
must award
a total of 27 points or more
or the title is not awarded.
If two of the 3 judges
award 30 points
and the third judge
awards 23 points,
even though the total score
is higher than 81 ~
the dog is not given credit
for that show.
Any dog receiving
a perfect score
of 270 points
in three shows
will earn the title of
"A.P.R.I. Champion Par Excellence".
The overall show champion ~
"A.P.R.I. Distinguished Show Champion",
will be chosen from
the champions having
the most points.
If two or more dogs
have the same number of points,
a new judging with 3-5 different judges
will be held to break the tie.
A.P.R.I will also hold a Premier Show annually
consisting only of Champions
from the previous year.
The A.P.R.I Premier Show champion
will be selected
from this group of champions
using the same standards
as the Distinguished Show Champion.
In this show,
up to five places will be recognized ~
Premier Show Champion 1st through 5th place.
The A.P.R.I does not rely
on the opinion of one judge
to evaluate the dog.
This makes judging fair and impartial
and is how it should be.
It takes the politics out of the equation.
One of the categories for judging is temperament.
This is also as it should be.
If you are looking
for a wonderful companion,
we'd be happy to assist you.
If you have
any comments or questions,
we would be happy to answer them for you
or direct you to the A.P.R.I.
I'm sure they would also be happy
to answer any of your questions
via telephone or email.
The email address is apr@aprpets.org.
The phone number is 479-299-4418.
We would love to be your breeder of choice.

We will be working very hard
to assist with forming a club
in Pennsylvania
which will enable our state
to hold A.P.R.I. sanctioned shows.
Both owners & breeders
of A.P.R.I. registered dogs
are encouraged to volunteer.
The A.P.R.I recognizes
all A.K.C. recognized breeds.
