The problem of this rule is that when the puppies get picked up they don´t have a registration number in Germany, they get the pedigree and everything with it when the last control of the litter has been made and certified. This happens with 8 weeks, what is the normal time to pick them up here. Then you send all certifications to the VDH and wait. And if the VDH makes a mistake in one pedigree you have to send them all back because all other puppies of the litter stand on the pedigree of every dog. When the person at the VDH is on holidays, the VDH has a big exhibition in Dortmund or anything else everything takes longer. If it is a mistake like that the VDH simply got some names wrong you have the other possibility to contact the owners and ask them if the new name would be alright for them, if they agree you don´t need to send everything back. If those owners are on holidays, too buisy to answer this also can take time if they don´t agree everything starts all over again, etc....

So it is not possible to send all datas with 8 weeks and it can take much longer till everything is ready. So you can send datas 2-3 times and always wait for an update or you can wait till everything is ready. Not to mention that sometimes some puppies stay longer and don´t have a new owner with 8 weeks. So it is not possible to fullfil this rule in Germany and every breeder will be removed sooner or later who is too buisy to send all datas in little pieces what will anyway cause more work for the person keeping the database.
It would be easier to make a simple request if the person who hasn´t send the datas is not willing to send them or simply is waiting for them.
