The AKC does NOT register American Bulldogs. The American Bulldog is not a mixed breed and can be registered with both the NKC (national kennel club) and UKC (United Kennel Club).
It is not recognized by the AKC for several reasons including the fact that the breed's original Breed club the ABA (American Bulldog Association) as well as many other AB fanciers are firmly against AKC recognition. Many are afraid that recognition by the American Kennel Club will be detrimental to the breeds working heritage; one look at AKC German Shepherd Dogs will give you the reason behind this fear.
There are two varieties of the American Bulldog: the standard and the bully. The NKC, which is the third oldest All Breed Registry in the United States, recognizes the two standards as two varieties of the same breed. This is similar to the AKC Beagle standard which has two varieties, the 13" and the 15", of the same breed. At NKC sanctioned conformation events the Standard dogs are shown separately from the Bullies until the Best in Show. United Kennel Club only recognizes one variety of the standard which is often referred to as the Hybrid Standard (a blend of the standard and bully).
Dont know if it really matters per say as far as the registration goes, but my dog had puppies and when I tried selling them alot of the store looked down on my pups when I told them they were NKC. Some stores told me they only buy AKC for some strange reason.
Nope. If you want an AKC dog, you have to buy an AKC
I too had this deilema recently. My AKC registered boxer decided to have puppes with my NKC registered boxer. So, i talked to my vet and he said that you can double register the AKC momma as NKC too. So i called and talked to the NKC people and they said to send a copy of the registration papers (from the AKC) and 2 pictures of the dog and a check for $18.00.
You don't. Both parents have to be the same
AKC is a legit registry. Ckc is a
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.
Papers don't matter when you are breeding dogs. The only problem you will have is registering the puppies.
AKC is a legit registry. They require proper paperwork to register a dog thru them. ACA will register anything as anything.
