Is it possible that each breed club could help with the registration/ kennel inspections? This would take some of the pressure off of AKC and who better to inspect the dogs than the club. However I can see quite a few minuses to that too... Political factions in a breed could war with other successful kennels and whoever has the power of registry inspection could be at an unfair advantage or make it more difficult for other kennels.
I don't see the reasoning for following the pedigree of a mutt. It lends the "designer breeds" more credence when they don't deserve it. The same mutt shelter dogs (not meant derogatorily) are going to continue to be unpedigreed because they don't know who the father is in most cases. Again, I think it puts more interest in the "designer mutts" for no good reason.
