Fixit, Yes, you can if you bother to keep the paper work needed to do it. I didnt even think to try and register the dog till he was four years old. Read earlier posts, I wasn't very worried about paper work at the point in my life. Still ain't, but I think it does the breed justice if you produce jam up dogs and have the paperwork to prove what they are. Live and learn.
Dodgegirl. Didn't breed soco for Dogos, bred him for hog dogs. Actually never advertised him at stud what so ever, not that i would advertise any dog at stud, or even advertise puppies. I let my dogs performance speak for itself, and the rest takes care of itself. And Soco was bred to an AB, so they are just hog dogs with no pretty name to call them. They are still all white, and most would still refer to them as unicorns
, like I said, I'm strictly breeding that line to keep socos hog dog blood goin. Breeding a female that shows all of his traits to another male Dogo... For more hog dogs, not for more Dogos.
When I say I'm not against breeding a dog that does not confirm exactly to the breed standard, I do mean it. If there is a dog that is an inch taller than breed standard, but is an excellent dog in all other aspects, they deserve to be bred. Form follows function, and just because a dog doesn't have the exact breed standard for looks, doesn't mean it is not excellently comfomed either. Breed for hunt, health, temperament, disposition, conformation (angulation, structure, not height weight), then start thinking about looks, but always breed the best dogs you can and don't settle for sub par on the function, the form will follow.
