do you mean thru the APBR? yes i have most all of my dogs registered with them in addition. takes at least 6-10 weeks for single pit registration, litters have priority and are usually completed in 2-4 weeks. For me I think they offer many benefits. There pedigree research program is extensive and its awesome how much more pedigree you have access to compared to the other registries and for a lot cheaper. Also I think its a good registry for my puppies new families as it is very supportive and offers a lot to them as well as a great way to keep in touch and allows me to watch my family grow automaticly. If you have dogs that dont have a lot of pedigree its also a good registry as well because it offers you the ability to record and track your own line so that you can begin building your own pedigree.

Oh if they have no pedigree available then theres not any research they can do but thats ok as well, they can start there pedigree here with themselves. And if your breeding them then at least the pups have a pedigree started on them so buyers will know where they came from.
For the research I was referring to was on dogs that have a pedigree like from another registry, here they have a very advanced research system that can further locate that family back farther than any of the other registries offer. For example I had a dog with a six generation pedigree from ukc. apbr was able to research that pedigree back 19 generations!! I thought that was pretty cool.

theres no 'bloodline' test no. you can do a dna test but all that will tell is if the dog is purebred or not or you can get a parentage test which will tell you only if your dog did in fact come out of those dogs. Really all you can do is try to get the parents of your pup to register there dogs when you register your dogs, then at least your dog will have a started pedigree. But if they don't want to or cant for some reason you will just have to start your pedigree from your dog. You can tell people what bloodline you believe the pups parents were from and either they will believe you or not. It kinda almost doesnt matter, really you will be working on your own bloodline anyway.
I actually have a girl or two like that. My one girl I know who she came out of and who they came out of as well as most of who they come out of but i never got any pedigree so hers just starts with her. There is no doubt she is purebred tho to anyone who sees her and it is no problem. In fact she has had a three year waiting list on her pups. My other female I bought from someone who was supposed to be quite respectable. She was dual registered and I know her bloodline as well. When I went to pick her up, they had one set of papers and not the other so we signed a contract stating they would send both sets as soon as they found the other set. Well unfortunely for me, personal problems in there life lead them to no longer be in business and they had more problems than to care if I got my papers or not and unfortunely for my very preggo girl, she never did get them. All you can do is explain the situation to people if they wonder about the pedigree and they will believe you or not. I haven't had a problem with that personally, if they want a pup with lengthy pedigree i just refer them to another litter.

its no problem. Have you ever been thru a birth before? Because she is so young I would absolutely tell you to ask any and all questions that you need to and read read read research on the internet so you know all the signs of whats good and not. Since she is not quite mature she will most likely need your help in certain aspects and you might have to actually teach her some stuff. Most will come naturally to her but you should be on hand to reassure her and make sure she does what shes supposed. I have noticed the difference between the young moms and the older moms being that the older moms will usually know just want to do and the younger ones are often more than willing but have to be shown sometimes how to care for the pups proper. Either way best of luck and feel free to ask away!

and most likely you both will do great! We have done a lot of rescue so I do have experience with young mothers. And then for comparison my own females I dont breed until two or three generally. And I have found a difference in the amount of work lol usually the younger females you have to help out alot more than with the older females but each female and litter is different.. even with the same female!
With the young mom, she really just needs a calming comforting presence to reassure her so she doesnt freak out. Many times they will not quite understand what is going on at first and the pain of the delivery can freak them out against that first puppy. That is where being on hand to tell her its ok and that she is doing great will go along ways. They dont always know how to properly carry the pup and may be too rough with them. Again that comes with experience and you being there to guide her will help. Make sure that you have read up on all the labor stages and that you know how to cut an umbilical cord and what to do if she cuts it too close and the pup is bleeding too much (dental floss is handy to have on hand this case so you can tie it off).
I think the most common thing that I have run into new mothers not really understanding they are supposed to do is properly cleaning of the pup. Pups can not eliminate (poo or pee) without stimualation until they are closer to three weeks of age. So an experienced mom will lick them quite frequently and usually before and after a feeding, pooping and peeing them. If she doesnt do this you will have to step in for the sake of the pups so they dont get bloated and in pain. And do in in front of her nose so that she sees what your doing and if your lucky she will begin to do it for herself. I once had a female who wouldnt touch the pups til they were three weeks old and i faithfully did it for her right in front of her. Then all of the sudden she copied me and took great care of the pups from then on.. actually too much so lol as she was still cleaning after them all the way up to them leaving at eight weeks lol! By then of course they could do it themselves hee hee. But ya basicly you will just need to take a cotton ball or wash cloth wetted with warm water and rub there bottom until they go potty. It is pretty easy to pee them but the pooing is a little harder, they will probally poo every other or third time you try.
And with none of this do i mean to scare you in any way! The best thing is to read up and know any things you may run into so that you can be prepared before any if anything does happen.
