anine genealogy in now a popular pursuit, engaged in by ever-increasing numbers, but, despite
the ready availability of much data,
including online searchable databases,
you will eventually come across a
number of impossible to find ancestors
unless you are one of the fortunate few
with access to complete collections of primary sources.
On reaching this point you may wish to avail yourself of a pedigree tracing service, but do be careful to ensure that only primary sources for the kennel control you are searching in are using, and demand tracing references are supplied along with information such as date of birth, breeder, etc.
Owning a full set of Kennel Club Collie registration records means the Collie Tree Pedigree Tracing Service can supply pedigree information for any UK registered Collie, Rough or Smooth, although it is advisable to contact me personally either by telephone or e-mail, using the subject Pedigree Tracing, to discuss requirements.
For anyone wishing to make a start in this fascinating hobby it is essential you acquire a good background knowledge of key dogs, bitches, kennels and breeders including their periods of influence.
