About Us

The initial records for this database were retrieved from the Chesapeake RollCall to expand our own Chessie's pedigree. Several hundred names and references had to be validated and fixed manually. Hopefully we've found most of the errors, but if you see any suspicious entries in our database, please . If your Chessie, or any of it's parents, are not in the database yet, you can use our submission form. The ChessieDB is a community based effort - anyone can contribute to the database, for the benefit of everyone.

Submissions are imported into Breeders Assistant for Dogs by Tenset where they are checked for errors, and then re-exported to the website.

Tenset offers a FREE application called FSpeed to calculate inbreeding co-efficients (COI). You can download a special version of the ChessieDB database for use with FSpeed. This archive is updated regularly and should contain the same dogs as our online database.

You can reach us by e-mail at or by regular mail at:.
