Can you register an akc Maltese with a ckc Maltese?

???? I think you mean, Can you register a litter born to an AKC registered dog and a CKC registered dog. You can obtain a dual registration from CKC for your AKC registered Dog. AKC does not recognize CKC (Continental Kennel Club). Therefore your litter would need to be CKC registered. You can print out your applications at www.ckcusa.com

Is the American kennel club a puppy mill?

No. The American Kennel Club (AKC) is a registry of purebred dog pedigrees in the United States (in addition to promoting events, like dog shows, for purebred dogs, but that's irrelevant to the question). To register with the AKC, an owner needs to show the dog's parents were registered as a purebred breed (recognized by the AKC). The AKC isn't a puppy mill because it is not involved at all with the actual breeding of dogs. Note that there has been some criticism of the AKC, as a registered dog is no sign whatsoever of dog health or any sort of strong bloodline. AKC registered dogs often still possess genetic diseases since the AKC does not required any sort of health screening for a dog to be registered. Therefore puppy mill dogs can often still be registered with the AKC, and "fool" uninformed consumers. The AKC is not a puppy mill itself, but note that a piece of paper signifying a dog is registered with the AKC is not a sign the dog didn't originally come from a puppy mill.

NKC English Bulldog you bought from a breeder that reg her bullies with akc nkc Can you reg your bullie with akc?

In order to register a dog with the AKC you must first have papers from the breeder showing the litter was registered with the AKC. The breeder obtains these papers by submitting a report of puppies born of two AKC registered parents. If either parent is not AKC registered, then the puppies cannot be AKC registered in the normal way. However, any purebred dog of a breed recognized by the AKC can be registered on an indefinite listing privilege if the animal is first spayed or neutered and an application with fees and required photographs is submitted to the AKC. Such animals cannot (obviously) be used for breeding nor shown in conformation, but they can compete in trials like obedience, herding, gun dog, tracking, and agility.

No, The upcoming litter will not be AKC registered. Find good homes for your puppies. Take special attention to your bitch when she is in season the next time, or have her spayed after the pups are born.


Are pedigree and akc registration the same thing?

No they are not. A "Pedigree" is a record of the lineage behind the dog, such as parents names, AKC numbers, OFA numbers, then grandparents, then great grand parents, etc. It depends on if you get a 3 or 5 generation pedigree. A breeder normally gives you a pedigree of your pup's background upon purchase or you can order a 3 or 5 generation Pedigree on your dog from the AKC. AKC records are the individual record of each purebred dog and has to be registered with the AKC. You can only get this if the parents were both registered with the American Kennel Club, AKC and the litter registration of their litter is registered with the AKC. The AKC will then issue out individual AKC papers for each pup in the litter. Hope that helps to explain the difference.
