Version 3.0 of the Online Pedigree Database, launched in late 2004, is the current version of our proprietary database system. The primary enhancement of this version is an entirely revised system for Registrations and Health Certifications. This functionality allows for an unlimited number of registrations and health certifications, and also standardizes how they are submitted to the database. The Pedigree Submission Tutorial has been updated to reflect these changes to the system, and also has been expanded to include information about sources (a previously undocumented enhancement from Version 2.2 launched in early 2004).

Thanks to our many members from all around the world, the Online Pedigree Database has grown to include over 240,000 dogs in 133 breeds! Don’t see your favorite breed? Sign up for a free membership and be the first to submit pedigree information for your breed to the Online Pedigree Database!

Visit the Title Acronyms page for help deciphering the many different titles, both before and after a dog's name. The page was last revised during the summer of 2006. In addition to titles from all different types of activities and events, acronyms for countries and organizations are also included.

To enter your own pedigrees, you must sign up to become a member (it's free!). Once you are a member, you can enter your own pedigrees anytime through our online submission system. Please read the tutorial before entering dogs for the first time. You can add pictures and descriptions for your dogs, and you can edit your records at any time.

If you have suggestions for new features or services, please let us know! We are always planning many new enhancements and we appreciate your feedback.

Thank you for your support of the site!
