Receiving full AKC Registration or Partial AKC Registration when purchasing a Shining C puppy?
When a puppy is sold with full AKC registration, it means that the puppy’s pedigree is eligible for breeding, and the new owner has the ability to register litters produced by that dog. With that being said, if you choose to purchase a puppy with Full AKC Registration, a Breeding Contract will need to be signed. Even if the buyer says they don’t intend to breed their puppy and still want Full AKC Registration, the contract is mandatory incase the buyer changes their mind in the future. It is important to note that, in alignment with our breeding program and the health of our puppies, we have established this contract & policy requiring that customers who purchase a FULL AKC REG. female puppy must sign when puppy is purchased. This policy is in place to ensure the safety, health, and well-being of our puppies and to prevent unwanted or irresponsible breeding practices.
In contrast, partial AKC registration limits the puppy's ability to be bred and registered. This option is typically offered for pets only that are not intended for breeding. Only a Puppy Sale Agreement contract will be signed when purchasing a limited AKC registered puppy. Both male and female.
Please Note -
Full registration can be a powerful tool for responsible breeders who are committed to maintaining the breed standard, but it also comes with a responsibility. By limiting the breeding of our puppies to those who adhere to these specific guidelines, we ensure that each breeding is done in a controlled and informed manner, with consideration for the welfare of both the dog and any potential litters.
Following this policy is critical not only for maintaining the integrity of the breed but also for the health and safety of our puppies. We want to ensure that every puppy is placed in a suitable and responsible home, and we strongly discourage any breeding practices that might lead to overcrowded situations or health issues for the puppies involved.
We appreciate your understanding and adherence to these guidelines, as they are in place to protect the long-term health and safety of all our dogs.
