The Australian National Kennel Council Ltd (ANKC) was established in 1958, now known as Dogs Australia. It is the ONLY internationally recognised registry able to issue certified pedigrees for purebred dogs.
All ANKC breeders must abide to the Code of Ethics outlined on the ANKC website.
ANKC Certified pedigrees are also recognised with the state government and local councils.
All other registries such as Master Dog Breeders Association, ABR, Australian Canine registry, ICBS etc, are not affiliated with the ANKC and CANNOT issue Certified Pedigrees.
If you have doubts if a breeder is registered, please contact your ANKC State office to confirm.
