The Continental Kennel Club, or CKC, is a dog registry that registers pure bred dogs and some mixed breed dogs. It is possible to register a dog through CKC if the parents were both unregistered, as long as you know three generations of the dog's pedigree.
Instructions
1. Go to the Continental Kennel Club website (see Resources) and print an application for registration. Pick a litter registration or single dog registration. Read over the CKC rules for registration to answer any questions you have about registering a dog or litter with CKC.
2. Fill out the form completely. CKC will return incomplete forms. If both parents were registered with CKC, you simply fill out the information including the parent's CKC numbers.
3. Know that you can register a dog at any age if its parents were both registered with another kennel club. You have to make a copy of the registration certificate and three generation pedigree for both the sire and the dam and send these in with the application.
4. Take the required pictures of your dog. If neither of the dog's parents are registered, you have to have two pictures of the dog, a front shot and a side shot.
5. Gather all of the required documents, payment method and photos and put them in an envelope to mail to CKC.
6. Mail the envelope certified or return receipt requested. This will give you proof of when CKC got the application.
