Registration

    Hello,
    I just bought my Basenji puppy Ayo a few weeks ago, and his litter is registered with America's Pet Registry. I live in Dominican Republic and I;ve been told that they only register foreign dogs that are registered with the American Kennel Club. Can I register him with the American Kennel Club if he has Americas Pet Registry???

    No, APRI is a registry that was started by breeders who did not want to follow AKC's rules for registering litters most often their requirement to have DNA profiles for frequently used sires or who had their AKC privileges suspended. APRI dogs are not recognized by AKC.

    Oh my… So, I will propbably not be able to get him registered here in the Dominican Republic! I dont understand what the point of having a registry is if it is not valid.

    Because most people do not care if their "papers" are from a valid registry and will pay more from puppies when they are advertised as "registered" even though the organization is not a valid one because they don't know the difference and by the time they do the breeder has their money.

    Enjoy your pup Ayo for the wonderful pet that he is. Registry is important if you plan to show, then possibly breed. For a pet, it is not a big deal. All mine are rescues, only one is actually registered, but I love them all the same.

    I would suggest highly that you consider doing the DNA test for Fanconi. It is really important for you and the long term for your Basenji. You can learn about the test at www.basenjihealth.org

    yeah, I know, and I most likely would not have shown, because i never have, but its just frustrating to know that I cant. He has champion bloodlines in both his mother pedigree and his fathers, with akc but …. yeah. I didnt think it mattered because I was going to register him here in the DR and not in the states. It turns out that they probably wont register him here unless he is akc.
    It doesnt matter that much to me.

    I would still suggest that you have him DNA'ed for Fanconi for your own peace of mind

    If he was tested then he would have an OFA listing. All tested dogs are listed on the OFA site.

    I spoke with the breeder and she is sending me the info on the test.

    Again, if not on the OFA site, then it was not done… hopefully for you it was

    Please give all the pedigree information to Sally Wallis who takes care of the Basenji Pedigree Database as it is important to have all Basenjis in it especially the non AKC registered ones. Her e-mail address is sally.wallis@btopenworld.com.

    The website is http://www.pedigrees.zandebasenjis.com/search.html

    Who is the breeder of your dog and the sire and dam? I am curious because I have rescued a couple of APRI registered dogs.

  • dmeyD

    I just received all the info. The ofa number and everything for the sire and the dam. The sire is clear and the dam is "at risk". What information do you want me to send you. The pedigree registration numbers?

  • dmeyD

    I bought him from George and Melissa Howell in Kansas City, MO. They arent "breeders" they just had one litter at home. I will send Sally an email whith the sire and dams info. I havent registered my puppy Ayo yet.

    Please note that one who has a litter is a breeder, whether they want to be called that or not.
    The reason it was mentioned to send Sally Wallis the information is because that litter can never be picked up through the AKC stud books since the dam is not AKC registered. Sally has built a massive basenji pedigree database and it has been helpful beyond years when looking up pedigrees of rescue dogs, as well as research for breeders.

    Do you mind sharing the full names of the sire and dam with us?

    Best of luck with your new little one!

    I will do the Fanconi test, for my own peace of mind. When my Lucy died, it was so unexpected that I wonder if she had it; I got her from a young gal that bred her two basenjis, so I never knew her pedigree. I was surprised to see the AKC Registration numbers for both of Halo's parents, knowing that she came from a mill, and I went on AKCs web site to validate that the number is valid. I am also impressed that the basenji website even had little Halo recognized as a dog…. how did she do that? :)

    You can dual register him. Register him with AKC and then use the AKC registration to qualify for CKC registration.

    AKC Registration for Dogs from "Other" Domestic Registries

    @gbroxon: It sounds like reputable breeders don't have to worry about this, Pat? As a reputable breeder will register the litter, and that would be caught(?) if a disreputable buyer tried to circumvent limited registration by going this route? This would help people that purchase a dog that "was" AKC but they (BYB's or Puppymillers) don't want to do the DNA AKC requirement or pay to register the litter. However, it bring up another point… just because a breeder "says" here is the pedigree, doesn't mean it really belongs to that dog. Of course that is one of the reasons that AKC started the required frequent sire requirement of DNA on file. And the reason that many BYB's and Puppymills then started their own "registries" If AKC were to say, OK you can register, but must be spay/neuters as it is with their PAL/ILP program (conditional registration) I would not have objections. I know of dogs registered and there is no way that the pedigee of that dog represents the sire and dam.

    One of the main reasons small operation breeders don't use AKC dogs is because a breeder sold them a dog under an AKC limited registration, meaning the dog wasn't intended to be breeding stock, and the breeder intended for the puppy to be neutered when it was old enough. Sometimes people decide they are not going to get the puppy fixed, and will use it for breeding…at that point, any puppies produced from that dog are not registerable with the AKC. But the other registeries will sign those dogs up with no questions asked.
