A Dog's pedigree records the Dog's ancestors back over several generations so that the Dog's parentage can be seen. This makes the Dog purebred and means that breeders can make sure that two dogs aren't related so that they can breed them. It also helps to keep records of whether any of the Dog's ancestors had a certain fault or inherited disease. Only dogs with pedigrees are shown at Crufts (unless they are in Agility or Working Classes).

A pedigree is a chart that shows the parentage of a particular animal, usually going back multiple generations and then tracing forward to show first cousins, second cousins and third cousins. A pedigree is used by scientists to clarify the genetic heritage of a particular trait. This is useful when researching diseases or conditions that are highly heritable (mostly based on genetics).

A half-shaded circle on a pedigree chart represents a female who is a carrier of a genetic trait or disorder, but does not express it phenotypically. This indicates that she has one normal allele and one mutated allele for the trait in question. In contrast, a fully shaded circle would represent a female who expresses the trait. Pedigree charts are useful for tracking inheritance patterns across generations.
