^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Probably not UKC. United Kennel Club was at the forefront in doing
things like taking a public stand *against* puppy mills and *for* DNA
testing of breeding stock to protect the integrity of their registry.
In these matters, they were actually far ahead of AKC. UKC can and
will investigate breeders and can and will remove them and their dogs
from the registry if they're up to no good.

I suspect the high volume breeders and people evading enforcement of
AKC's rules and regs would go to organizations such as the American
Pet Breeders Association or CONtinental Kennel Club long before they
took up with UKC.
