American Border Collie Association: The ABCA is a working dog registry and
doesn't care at all about what a dog looks like so the standard is basically that the
dog will herd.
The ABCA has banned a few breeder! Way to go ABCA we are very happy that
the ABCA has decided to stop puppymills and breeders who are not ethical!
Buyer beware the breeders who were banned have changed their kennel name
and switched to a new registry! Click here to read more!
We only recommend a person buy a pup who is registered with the ABCA, ISDS,
AKC, KC or the Canadian Kennel Club.

The AKC has been known for years as the "conformation" registry but
AKC also sponsors performance events and herding as well. AKC
also requires DNA profiling of dogs who are bred often. None of the
other registries do this. AKC also inspects kennels of breeders who
breed a lot.
