Here in Finland the Kennel Club just lately published terrible news in Cotton De Tulear breed; over 700 dogs in the breed have found out to have falce pedigrees, and so they have now been removed to 'not for breeding' -register.
They were still pure breed (not mixes of several breeds) but had wrong parental information.
The high number of the offspring does not make a difference; if some dog is found out to have falce pedigrees, all the offspring of that dog will also pay the price for this no matter how many there are. So in a small breed this could cause serious problems after a huge part of the whole population should be left outside breeding.
