Pedigree Pets

We clarify the pedigree and registration documents for the individual pet. We will show you the available records and explain who issued them.

What makes a pet pedigreed?

Pedigree pets are animals with documented ancestry that meet the standards of international breeding organizations. They have complete pedigrees and are registered in official registries.

Important to know

Pedigree documents from the relevant organisation provide evidence of ancestry. Mixed-breed animals have mixed ancestry. Appearance or missing documents alone do not establish an animal’s health or temperament.

We discuss the origin, available documents and handover terms separately for your chosen pet.

We record the document list and agreed purchase terms before payment.

What is a breed?

A breed standard describes the breed’s characteristic traits. We clarify your chosen pet’s ancestry through its documents and discuss its individual health and temperament separately.

A breed is formed as a result of years of selective work by breeders, who select the best representatives to obtain offspring with desired qualities. Each breed has its own standard - a detailed description of the ideal representative.

Recognition of a breed occurs through international organizations (FIFe, WCF, FCI, etc.), which maintain registries of purebred animals and control compliance with standards.

Documents of a purebred animal

Each purebred animal must have a complete set of documents confirming its origin and status:

Pedigree

A pedigree records an animal’s ancestors. The number of generations and the details recorded depend on the document and the issuing organisation’s rules.

Litter registration certificate

An initial registration document issued for a puppy or kitten. It records details such as date of birth, parents, breed and colour, and may be used to apply for a pedigree under the issuing organisation's rules.

Classes of pedigree animals

Pedigree animals are divided into 3 classes:

Pet (domestic companion) — ideal for families seeking a loving companion

We discuss spaying or neutering separately for the individual pet and record the agreed terms.

The ideal choice for families who want a healthy, friendly companion without breeding plans.

Breed (breeding animal) — animals interesting for breeding

Breed class animals have the right to breed and are selected by health, exterior, and genetic qualities. They meet the breed standard and can produce quality offspring.

Suitable for experienced breeders who plan to breed purebred animals.

Show (exhibition animal) — animals with prospects for winning at shows

Show class animals maximally meet the breed standard and have prospects for victories in exhibition rings. They have outstanding exterior qualities.

Intended for participation in exhibitions and further use in breeding work to improve the breed.

Sterilization and castration

We discuss spaying or neutering separately for the individual pet and record the agreed terms.

Why it's important:

  • Prevention of oncological diseases of the reproductive system
  • Reduction of the risk of behavioral problems (marking, aggression, escapes)
  • Increase in life expectancy
  • Prevention of unwanted offspring

When it's performed:

The timing and suitability of the procedure are determined individually with a veterinarian.
