What is a mated pair?
A mated pair is a sire and dam combination that has been mated and/or produced a litter. You may have created this mated pair yourself by creating a Mating or Birth Record using a sire and dam that you own(ed)/lease(ed) in your dog list. Or, the mated pair may have been created for you by the system if a sire or dam in your dog list was involved in a registered AKC litter.
