The difference between purebred dogs and double pedigree dogs lies in their lineage. Double pedigree dogs are not only purebred, but their parents are also registered with purebred dog associations and have certificates. Their lineage is documented and traceable back through generations. Think of double pedigree dogs as having a household registration book, so double pedigree is built on the foundation of being purebred.
Additionally, pedigree dogs are more valuable than purebred dogs and usually sell for higher prices. Moreover, the category of purebred dogs is broader. As long as a breed is recognized by authoritative organizations, it’s considered purebred. In DNA testing, if a dog’s genes are 100% from a specific breed, it’s a purebred dog.
