All purebred breeds of dogs have a set of conformational standards that keeps continuity within the lines. PONs are fully accepted and registerable with the American Kennel Club (AKC). In order to be accepted, we had to have a clear standard. Producing dogs that fulfill this standard should be the aim of every breeder. We are not interested in producing "pet" quality dogs for less money. We have produced over 100 puppies that are all within these standards, and would neuter or spay any animal that produced less than perfect pups. This is our Mission Statement.
