The AKC is the largest registry of purebred dog pedigrees in the United States. The American Kennel Club registered just over 900,000 dogs in 2003 alone.
The American Kennel Club is not the only registry of purebred dogs, but it is the one with which most Americans are familiar. For a dog to be registered with the AKC, the dog's parents must be registered with the American Kennel Club as the same breed, and the litter in which the dog is born must be registered with the American Kennel Club. Once these criteria are met, the dog can be registered as purebred by the AKC.
Registration indicates only that the dog is purely of one recognised breed; it does not necessarily indicate that the dog comes from healthy or show-quality blood lines. Nor is registration necessarily a reflection on the quality of the breeder or how the puppy was raised.
Registration is necessary only for breeders (so they can sell registered puppies) or for purebred conformation show or purebred dog sports participation.
Beyond maintaining its pedigree registry, this kennel club also promotes events for purebred dogs, including the prestigious Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, an annual event which predates the official forming of the AKC, and the American Kennel Club/Eukanuba National Championship.
The American Kennel Club provide useful information to millions of dog owners worldwide, supplying them with information on dog shows, dog breeds and breeding, dog and puppy registration, local events and general information about raising puppies and giving your dog a healthy lifestyle.
