Registration With The AKC

[Excerpt from The Newfoundland Club of America web site: http://www.newfdogclub.org]

A Newf puppy from an AKC registered litter will be eligible for individual registration with the American Kennel Club, the principal registry for purebred dogs in the U.S. When buying a puppy, one should be given either an AKC registration application with the litter number on it, or the AKC registration certificate with the individual dog's registered name and number on it, properly signed. AKC has available two different registration certificates. Regular AKC registration, (white certificate with purple border) and Limited Registration, (white certificate with orange border.)

Regular AKC registration entitles the dog to compete in all AKC events, and the offspring of a dog for which full registration is granted, will be eligible for registration. Limited Registration maybe used by the breeder to prevent indiscriminate breeding, regardless of that individual Newf.'s potential for breeding or showing. No offspring of a dog for which Limited Registration has been granted is eligible for registration. Each Limited Registration certificate for such dogs shall carry notice of the limitation, and the limitation shall continue, regardless of any change in ownership, unless and until the owner(s) of the litter at birth shall apply to AKC for removal of the limitation. If for some reason the breeder or seller cannot provide the AKC registration application at the time of sale, demand a written promise of when it will be provided. The breeder should also provide such pertinent data as whelping date, sire, dam, pedigree, immunization and worming records, and recommended diet and feeding.
