3. Registration Information
- Requested Registration Name
- Other registries: list & images of Registration Certificates
The SCPS requires that your dog’s Registered name begin with the Breeder’s Kennel Prefix. It is preferred that if the new Owner is also a Breeder, they include their own Kennel Prefix in the Registered Name as well, but it must never precede the Breeder’s prefix. The purpose of this requirement is to facilitate the ease of pedigree study.
For dogs already enrolled in another registry: These dogs will not be required to follow the SCPS Naming Convention. We will not require our Members to manage more than one registration name for the same dog. Going forward, any of that dog’s progeny will be required to follow the SCPS Registry's Naming Convention.
NOTE: REGISTERED NAMES CANNOT BE CHANGED ONCE A DOG IS ENTERED INTO THE REGISTRY. PLEASE CHOOSE CAREFULLY AND DOUBLE-CHECK SPELLING AND FORMAT.
4. PEDIGREE (if available)
- Breeder/Kennel name if available
- Sire and Dam
- Optional 6-Generation pedigree: Please submit your dog's six-generation pedigree. You may provide a screenshot, scan, or a link to where your dog's pedigree resides in another registry or official website.
NOTE: It is understood in an open registry that some dogs have little or no recorded pedigree; please be as complete as you can.
