The SV Pedigree

By Martin Wahl

On the two inside pages, every SV registration certificate comes with a four generation pedigree (Ahnentafel, shown here reduced, real size is 11x16") of the dog (the AKC charges extra for a certified 3 generation pedigree). Besides the names, registration numbers and titles of all ancestors, the SV pedigree for the first two generations, the Parents (Eltern) and Grand parents (Großeltern): indicates if the dog is breed surveyed with an * before the name and either the years the dog was breed surveyed for, or breed surveyed "Lebenszeit" (for life). It also indicates the "a" stamp (hip certificate), show rating, color (in abbreviated form, see tables below), and the breed survey report, plus all the litter mates (Geschwister) with their colors and markings, titles and show ratings behind their names (individual litter mates are separated by a / ).

The "Stempel HD Tierarzt" (veterinarian’s tattoo certificate) in the lower right corner (above) is the space provided for hip dysplasia entries. If there is an entry, the dog has been x-rayed and its tattoo number and date must be shown here, along with the veterinarians name, clinic, address, and signature.

An entry under "HD Befund" (radiograph diagnosis) indicates the type of "a" stamp received by the dog described on the front page.


A dog x-rayed but without an entry under "HD Befund" most likely has hip dysplasia and has been disqualified from breeding in Germany.
