To most puppy buyers the most important papers in their puppy's life is the 
ones used to potty train. Many  just want a healthy puppy bought from someone 
they feel they can trust. They get a pedigree and they don't really care if 
they register their puppy's or not. In the bigger picture it does not give you 
one piece of info on what a male is or is not producing. Most of my puppy 
buyers would rather Mirco chip their pups than register it with the AKC. Micro 
chipping protects the pup What does the AKC registration do for them?
   
  As for the Fut Mat entries. When you enter the pups they might look good, at 
the time of the show they have gone into the puppy uglies. It is a match any 
way you look at it. So you look at your ugly puppy and ask yourself . Do I want 
to spend money showing this right now?? Most of the time the answer is no. 
Can't fault anyone of that.
   
  Terry who wonders why we keep asking the same ole questions.
   
  Put simply we are not replacing ourselves in the breed because for the most 
part I don't think we want the competition. As we go the Happy Hunting Ground 
our numbers get smaller. Many who still love the breed are getting to old to 
participate. Fewer people showing dogs, equals fewer people breeding show-dogs, 
equals smaller entries.

many - even in the older classes?

I'm sure we've all heard of breeders losing entire litters to herpes, parvo,
etc. Combine that with pet owners who don't register and I'm sure it could
add up to 40% not being registered.
