The dog market has developed so far. Although the team is getting bigger and bigger, the quality of the dogs is difficult to guarantee! "It is too difficult to buy a purebred dog, and you are always cheated by dog ​​dealers"? I believe that after reading this article, you have some questions about purchasing. Purebred dogs will be of great help!

CKU has created "Five Artifacts" tailored for dogs. Through them, you will successfully identify the value of the dog in front of you.

First of all, as dog lovers, let’s get to know each other:

What are FCI and CKU

FCI (Fédération Cynologique Internationale) is the World Federation of the Canine Industry. Founded in 1911, it is currently the largest leading dog industry organization in the world. It currently has 98 national member organizations around the world, and the number of registered dogs every year exceeds one million.

FCI recognizes and formulates standards for more than 360 purebred dog breeds around the world, and has established an international standard professional breeding and management system for purebred dogs, as well as an international system for dog events and sports.

CKU (CHINA KENNEL UNION), as a member organization of FCI World Canine Federation in China, has been following the scientific and orderly breeding concept since its establishment in 2006, encouraging the breeding of purebred dogs with stable personalities and healthy genetics. Breeding dog certification and registration, registration and management of its members and kennels, and the support of professional international standards to ensure the quality and value of dogs.

So what are the “five magic tools” that CKU has created for dogs?

Let’s take a look:

　01 Chip

Scan and confirm the dog's internal chip, which is a must for every CKU dog - proving "who" it is.

You may ask, what is a chip? Is it important for dogs?

A chip is a unique code embedded in a dog's body to identify its identity. It is a unique ID that proves the dog's identity. Every dog ​​born in a CKU certified kennel and passed the review has an exclusive chip number issued by CKU.

The chip is about the size of a grain of rice and is implanted under the skin of the dog's neck in the form of an injection. What needs to be emphasized here is that the core is safe and fast, non-toxic, painless, anti-rejection, anti-dissociation, anti-gravity, and has no side effects for life!

CKU implants all microchips in dogsThe department has been registered with the National Encoding Center, and through the dog and cat identification service and dog and cat intelligent digital database provided by Pet Kingdom Network Technology Co., Ltd., the chip and dog information are bundled.

Example:

The chip is equivalent to the dog's unique identity, and the chip number is bundled with the dog's identity information. As long as you pick up the special scanner and lightly scan the dog's chip number, you can query the read chip number on the CKU official website to confirm the dog's true identity and prove "who" it is.

In China, most people do not see the importance of implanting microchips in their pets, which gives unscrupulous dog dealers an opportunity to falsify certificates.

The chip number is unique in the world and can also be said to be the dog's unique identity, proving that the dog was bred under a standard and standardized breeding system.

Once the dog gets lost in the future, the chip can help find the dog, and even serve as an important basis for disputes over the dog.

If the dog you purchased has a CKU chip implanted and any subsequent disputes arise, you can contact CKU staff to apply for necessary assistance based on the chip number to verify the dog's identity.

So is it enough to just have a chip?

​NO. What else you need: a pampering passport.

　02 Pamper Passport

Get the pet passport that proves the dog's identity and check whether it matches the chip number in the dog's body.

So, what exactly is a pamper passport? What is its use?

A pampering passport is the first line of defense to protect you from the unruly dogs in disorderly breeding farms:

It is a booklet that reflects basic information such as the dog's chip number, dog level, health status, vaccination and deworming records.

There is a newborn dog identity registration card sticker on the passport. Dog owners can check and confirm the dog's identity through the chip number on the passport registration card.

In order to help everyone clearly identify the value of dogs, CKU divides certified dogs into five levels: companion level, purebred level, and purebred level based on the comprehensive evaluation of the corresponding training received by the registered dog and the qualification titles obtained. , competition level, championship level.

Pet Passport can help you better understand the true information of your dog, and you can also better identify the true value of your dog through its pet level.

Starting from February 1, 2019, the pampering passport has been upgraded. All passports before this are a unified blue version; after February 1, they will be divided into blue version and gold version according to the different objects of issuance., which helps everyone understand the true information and value of dogs at a glance.

CKU breeding rules require eugenics and eugenics, and do not allow inbreeding within three generations of dogs. Dogs with health or character defects are not allowed to be registered. Therefore, newborn dogs who want to get a golden pampering passport need to go through a strict breeding certificate application review. process.

At the same time, just like people’s birth certificates, when applying for a series of documents such as subsequent pedigree certificates for dogs, the pampering passport is an indispensable and effective proof.

With the chip and pampering passport, some merchants say how good this dog is, and how many of them have won championships in their ancestors, so the price is relatively high.

Then how can I know whether the ancestry information of this dog mentioned by the merchant is true or false? Look at the pedigree certificate!

　03 Pedigree Certificate

If the dog’s chip passport is complete and it meets the conditions for applying for a higher level of dog, it can obtain a pedigree certificate with corresponding qualifications.

What is a pedigree certificate? What is it used for?

The dog pedigree certificate issued by CKU is a household registration book unique to dogs. It is called PEDIGREE CERTIFICATE internationally and is currently recognized in 98 countries (regions) around the world.

The pedigree certificate can trace the dog’s family pedigree, and records its past competition results and honors, etc., which fully proves the value of the dog.

Pedigree Certificate

PS: Encircled in the upper right corner is the laser anti-counterfeiting sticker with the CKU logo; encircled in the lower right corner is the dog QR code, which is unique.

What information can we learn about dogs through pedigree certificates?

Example:

As we said before, the dog QR code circled in the lower right corner of the pedigree certificate above is unique.

By scanning the QR code, you can directly see the pedigree and ancestor information of your dog registered in the CKU system, as well as the highest honor the dog has received through the competition:

At the same time, you can also take your dog and its pet passport to the nearest local club where CKU radiates across the country to apply for a pedigree certificate renewal.

What should I do if I still have doubts about my dog’s identity?

Do a "paternity test"!

04 DNA blood sample retention

DNA blood samples are kept on file to strengthen the protection of the authenticity of dog information.

At present, CKU dogs with pedigree certificates need to take DNA blood samples as soon as possible. On the premise of ensuring the genetic health and stability of the dog, it is undoubtedly very important to confirm the authenticity of the dog's pedigree.

What should I do if I have doubts about the identity of my dog?

Example:

Since you are buying a purebred dog, you must of course put an end to the phenomenon of Mr. Wang next door taking advantage of the situation.

When you have doubts about the identity of your dog, you only need to take it to the CKU professional laboratory to apply for a dog genetic comparison and verify the parent-child relationship.

The blood sample collection of CKU dogs has a professional and strict standardized process:

The collection of dog blood samples needs to be performed in a safe and sterile environment. Staff with medical qualifications will collect the blood samples drawn from the dogs into vacuum anticoagulation tubes, store them normally in a 0℃-5℃ freezer, and then forward them to CKU's professionally managed dog blood samples in Pingyang, Wenzhou as soon as possible. The library is imported into a -85°C freezer for classified storage in a low-temperature sterile environment to ensure that the dog blood samples can be checked and valid.

When the dog needs to undergo site analysis, parent-child comparison and other tests, the dog's blood sample can be taken out and thawed through the classification index in time, and then distributed to CKU's cooperative professional laboratory for testing.

If a dispute arises later, you can also apply to the CKU professional laboratory to help you conduct a genetic comparison of the dog to confirm the identity of the dog.

If I go all the way and buy a high-quality purebred dog, will I still enjoy other value-added services?

　05 Value-added services available

After obtaining the pedigree certificate, the dog officially has the qualifications to compete and breed.

In other words, after your dog has undergone certain training, it can stand on the field to compete with more outstanding dogs, or join the road of breeding merits to bring more healthy and beautiful dog babies.

There are more than 600 CKU dog show events across the country every year. It is a club for dog lovers.

First, all you have to do is scan and confirm the dog’s internal chip, which is a must for every CKU dog.

Then, get the pet passport that proves the dog’s identity and check whether it matches the chip number in the dog’s body.

If the dog’s chip passport is complete and meets the conditions for applying for a higher level of dog, you can obtain a pedigree certificate with corresponding qualifications and better understand the dog’s ancestor information.
