AKC PEDIGREE:
FREQUENTLY USED SIRE

The AKC requires that any stud dog that sires more than three litters in a single year, or more than 7 litters total, must have a DNA profile on record at AKC before they will register any new litters. This is called a "Frequently Used Sire" program. A DNA profile is like a DNA fingerprint and can be used to verify paternity when necessary.
