I believe that you can order certified pedigrees on their website.

You can order a pedigree through AKC. Prices start at $10.  Maybe this will help?   https://www.akc.org/reg/pedigrees.cfm

Calvin, try here if the dogs have O.F.A. numbers: http://offa.org/ Otherwise, you will need to go to the A.K.C. store at: http://www.akc.org/shop/index.cfm?nav_area=online_store develop a username and password and buy a couple of research pedigrees. As was mentioned above, the cost for each is about $10.00.

If you can find a champion in one (1) of the pedigrees it does become easier (and cheaper) if you can find the champion on a page such as this one: http://www.angelfire.com/wi/gsdpedigrees/amgsdpeds.html 

Or this one from the G.S.D.C.A archives: http://www.gsdca.org/GSDReviewed/Ldogs/index.html You can search by the firste letter of the dog's given name.

Good Luck!

Sometimes you can get lucky with a web search of the name, or the kennel name. Many kennels post pedigrees for their dogs.

FerrumGSD's, who posts on this board, is very knowledgeable about AKC pedigrees, and has copies of the red books. You might try contacting her to see if she can help.
