This is an outstanding site that gives a great wealth of information on dogs that are recognized by the AKC. Not only that, they also list breeders located in each state.
There is also a section where you can type in what you're looking for in a dog, and it will give you suggestions on suitable breeds.
This is the site I looked at before purchasing both my dogs. They have lists of trusted breeders. I was very happy with the health and level of care my dogs received as puppies. They are great dogs.
I ordered a Pedigree and I. D tags in the beginning of march, and still haven't received either. The customer service is extremely terrible, and seem uneducated. If you have to do any business with AKC expect to wait, wait, wait, and wait somemore

Answer: Don't ask AKC about honest breeders. I train dogs for service and I've been repeatedly bought purebreds from an AKC breeder who puts out genetically defective pups that die early and horribly. AKC DOES NOT CARE!
Answer: Scam-https://petscams.com/puppy-scammer-list/demainpoodles-com/
Answer: I believe this place is a scam. They answer emails right away until you ask for an AKC Registration number for the pup. Also they request payment via walmart or western union so you can't do a chargeback if they are fraud.
