There are have been questions on SM regarding whether the AMA and MO lists are identical. I bought the MO list in October 2004. I have just now gone to the AMA site to compare the lists. They are not identical. I only compared a few states because it is tedious and time consuming.
Alabama:
No duplicates
They each had two on their lists, but not the same two.
Alaska:
One on the list - Exactly the same
Arizona:
Four on the list - Exactly the same
California:
There are 8 that appear on both lists
AMA - Has 14 on its list
MO - Has 16 on its list
Colorado:
There is one that appears on both lists
AMA - Has 1 on its list
MO - Has 4 on its list
Connecticut:
AMA - Has 1 on its list
MO - Has none on its list
So, you can see that there are some similarities but it is not 100% exact and neither list is 100% complete. The AMA list includes only members in the AMA. I would imagine there are reputable breeders who are not members of the AMA.
If any of you want to know whether a specific breeder is on the MO list, I will be glad to check on it for you.
