Pedigree dogs are purebred (both of the Dog's parents were the same breed) and have their ancestries recorded and logged by the Kennel Club. Well-bred purebred dogs are tested for possible genetic faults that could be passed down. Breeding dogs are also often Champion show dogs who are deemed as a perfect example of the breed.
Non-pedigree dogs could be purebreds without papers or crossbreeds. These dogs may or may not be tested for health and temperament. Pedigree dogs have up to five generations of family history recorded and are completely purebred. If you buy a purebred without Kennel Club pedigree papers then technically it is not purebred as you have none of the Dog's ancestry recorded to prove it.
