Are registered dogs superior?

Ummm -- no. That's common knowledge.

A registry keeps track of pedigrees, which breeders and owners will judge as to "good" or "bad" and why or why not; so what makes a better dog is not within the context of what a registry DOES.

Registries are a nice service in that they are places that people now and in the future can use for research.

A registered dog is "superior" in that you can track and trace what went INTO that dog and what patterns are revealed that made him "good" or "bad" -- a nice thing to be able to do.

As with anything, the notion of registries and pedigrees can be abused too.
