Answer : Continental Kennel Club provides three 3 registration options for the certification of purebred canines.
Each type of registration implements an individual set of requirements for verification that the applicant dog is of proper breed type and eligible for registration with the Continental Kennel Club Inc. Canine Registration requires that the applicant submit the names and CKC numbers of both parents of the applicant dog or that in the case one or both parents is registered elsewhere a copy of each parent's registration certificate be submitted along with the application.
Dual Registration requires the applicant to submit a copy of the canine's registration certificate and pedigree, if available along with the application. A pop-up window will appear. You will then need to enter your Member Number, then a password of your choosing. Please be sure to include your name and address and we will email you back with your CKC Member Number. If your email address is not on file with CKC, we will have it added for you.
These include many European, Asian and developing breeds. Both organizations require that the mother of the litter is registered with them, with the AKC also requiring that the father is AKC-registered. The AKC requires litter registration by the breeder, with the owner of an individual puppy receiving a dog registration application from the breeder or seller.
The owner then sends in the application to the AKC, with the required fee. The application form includes the dog's gender, color and markings, name, and the signatures of the litter owner, new owner and any co-owners. The CKC's registration process is similar, except that the father of the puppy can be registered with another breed registry recognized by the CKC.
There are several registries of dogs.. Where Some registries will register mix breeds. Just be sure that the dog you are looking to add to your family is what "you think it is". Ask questions. If you are told it is registered.. There are some breeders who register with both registries for whatever reason. So be sure you know and understand what you are purchasing from whomever you get a puppy. I personally think that the "less paperwork" and "no litter fee's" for breeders that CKC Continental Kennel Club stresses below will, and has in my experience of working to help puppymill rescue animals, bring more and more puppymillers to register with the CKC.
Sure it may make it cheaper and less work for breeders to produce puppies, but making things cheaper and not caring if they have records IMO does not promote "quality" produced by breeders, but will increase the quantity produced and more of "Well, I think xxx is the sire.
Well we will put him down as the sire because the pups look like him". AKC requires complete and accurate records of breedings and placement of any and all puppies a breeder produces, and incorporated DNA testing on stud dogs to keep breeders honest and the purebred pure.
