what you mean by hybrids will legitmize certification? Also, not sure what COA is?

As far as the registration goes in the new ACR, it is only a database and is only as good as the honesty of the breeder (for that matter, the AKC doesn't go out to look at every litter of puppies, either!). For the most part, corns are not worth such huge $$$ that breeders are likely to go to the trouble of carefully falsifying records there to claim something that they know is untrue. But I am sure there will be some mistakes, just like before the ACR. But it may be easier for the breeder to catch and fix them. But if you don't trust the breeder, then just because it is registered, doesn't mean you can suddenly trust a dishonest person.
