Registration question

[Fuzznugget]

Because I can't find anything on the website, I'm asking here - is it possible to have a dog (in this case GSD) registered with the KC if both parents are, but pup's numpty owner lost contact details for breeder and can't remember names of pup's parents?

You need his registration certificate to change ownership, the breeder should have registered him?
You should have received his papers.

That's the thing - they didn't register this litter as it was their last.

Right....not sure why they would not register, even so - sent you a PM x

May just have to ring them up and find out what info they would need. Thanks for that! x

you cannot register the puppy, the breeders would have had to do that, and they would only be able to register the litter if both parents are KC registered or the bitch is under 8 years old. You will need to go back to the breeders to ask if the pup is KC reg, if not then ask. But I am afraid there is nothing you can do to register the pup. If you manage to get the KC papers you can then register the puppy in your name for £14

Only the breeders can register the puppies on the KC breed register. Reasons they might not are the parents aren't KC registered, the parents have an endorsement on their pedigree, the mum is over 7 years old or under 1 year old, the mum has already had 6 litters registered, mum and dad are father and daughter, mother and son or brother and sister, these will all mean the KC will not register the litter. If you want to register the dog to compete at agility, obedience, etc, then you can register them on the activities register, http://www.thekennelclub.org.uk/download/378/form5.pdf
