Can you trace a tatoo back to the breeder?

Charlie has a tatoo in his ear, 4 numbers. ( that i can see) He didnt come with any papers. SO I was just wondering if there is anyway to trace a tatoo back to the breeder? And if so, how.
Thanks

Lettin the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier than puttin it back in.

Most of the stuff people worry about ain't gonna happen anyway.

It might be a breeder tattoo , CKC may know who , as it is not likely a CKC tattoo since they have 5 digits in theirs which is a combo of letters and numbers, also talk to a vet they may have an idea if it is a lost dog dog registration tattoo

Canadian Kennel Club (CKC)
PH # 1-416-675-5511.
Dogs bred in Canada and registered with the Canadian Kennel Club are generally tattooed in 1 ear or the flank. The tattoo is made up of three parts, the most significant part is the initial, three character letter-number sequence. This identifies the breeder. An example of a CKC number: 7MR 1 C.

Here is a list of some tattoos
