Actually, if you looked at Bojak's Undercover Kojak's OFA listing it has all his health tested offspring. If the dog that is behind your dog isn't in that list then it wasn't tested.
You only have to type in every name if only 1 or 2 dogs were ever tested. In the case of a petstore dog, your right you will probably have to type in every name and you will probably find only a couple that were ever tested because puppymills who supply petstores don't test.

I know some of the dogs that have been used for breeding for petstore dogs. Do you have the names of the sire and dam of your dog and the breeder's name, city and state? Would they happen to go back to Tankersley's, WL's, and/or Reedgate's kennels?
I did a reverse pedigree on Omar's They Call Me Junior and one can follow it to the Misty Mountain kennel. Some of their Bs went to rescue and the remainder went to other breeders, Tankersley, Reed, Choate-all commercial breeders. I saw some of these dogs at the dog auctions.

Then your puppy cannot be shown in conformation shows.
In order to show in conformation, your dog must AKC registered. APRI is a registry used by breeders who did not want to follow AKC's rules. Either breeding dogs that were designated non-breeding by the breeder with limited registration or refusing to do DNA profiles on frequently used sires to prove paternity.
-
do you mean sire's used afor as inbreeding.
No, it means that the registery that he is registered with was set up by a bunch of different "for profit" breeders that did not want to conform with AKC's policy for breeders that do "many, many" breedings with the same dogs, year after year after year, as in Puppy Mill breeders. They are required to do DNA parentage testing with AKC, but they did not want the cost of the DNA tests cutting into their profits. Has nothing to do with inbreeding, it means that they just pump out puppies to sell for a profit.

No. APRI does not make that information public. Pedigrees only show direct ancestors, they do not show offspring.
The only way that information is shared is if the owners of dogs from those litters choose to make that information public. Such as sharing their Dog's Name, Registration Number, Date of Birth, Color, Gender, Sire, and Dam so it can be included in Sally's pedigree database so everyone has access.
