Unique Pedigree Club

Ben was part German Shepherd, part Collie, and quite simply was one of the greatest dogs anyone could have ever met.  He was the inspiration for this site.  Soon after he came to us as a five pound little pup, we realized that he embodied the best traits of both of his parents.  When we encountered other pet owners discussing their "registered" pets or what their lineage was in their "papers,"  we realized that Ben would not be deprived of his own "papers."  We set out to create an organization based on that principal, that every pedigree deserves to be recognized and celebrated.  Unique Pedigree will always be a resource to share stories, ask questions and get answers about mixed breeds, and to shine the spotlight on these wonderfully unique creatures. Please share your own stories with us while becoming a member today.  Your support can help change the minds of those people who believe that the only deserving pet is one with papers and a very big price tag.
