I don't really have a... dog in this hunt... but anyone could start up their own dog registry with whatever rules they want. I don't believe the AKC has preempted competition via regulatory capture, for example.

- microtherion 7y agoPut the dog registrations on a blockleash!
- panopticon 7y agoFor what it’s worth, there are a lot of other dog registries. Unfortunately, many of them seem to be associated with backyard breeders who look for registries with more lax rules to legitimize their stock.
