Thanks for the reply.. so if I understand you correctly.. if someone were to buy a CWDog puppy from you that was born in the UK and wanted to show the dog here in europe, they could not because the dog is not FCI recognized as a CWDog and if they wanted to breed here in Europe.. the litter would not be eligible for a FCI recognized pedigree or registration..
You said that that you have had 3 litters in the UK and that means that they do not have a FCI recognized registration. I hope for you sake that the CWDog is recognized, in the UK, in the near future.
Personally I don't think it's very advantageous for the breed to have that many non recognized dog in the population. I could also imagine that breeders in the rest of Europe ,where the CWDog is recognized, would not be very willing to breed with a CWDog that was born in the UK and without an official pedigree. Down the road people Could raise questions on how pure the offspring are, breeding with a non recognized dog is cross breeding to some people.
Once again thank you for the clarification.
