DNA Requirements for Frozen Semen
The current UKC policy requires that any Sire collected after January 1, 1997 must have a DNA profile on record with UKC before any litter resulting from the use of his frozen semen can be registered.
As a service to our customers, we recognize the DNA profiling conducted through other dog registries that also use MMI Genomics. If this sire has already been DNA Profiled through MMI Genomics, the profiling can be updated into UKC records by submitting a completed Application for DNA Profiling, a copy of the MMI Genomics Certificate of DNA Analysis and a processing fee of $8.00.
If this sire has not been DNA profiled through MMI Genomics, please contact United Kennel Club to purchase a DNA test kit that can be used to obtain a DNA sample from the dog. The DNA sample should be forwarded to our office along with this letter and a processing fee of $45.00. Once the DNA profile for this sire is complete, we will then complete the registration of the above referenced litter as quickly as possible.

A person could almost say that the history of the English Coonhound is the history of all coonhounds — and he wouldn’t be too far wrong. With the exception of the Plott Hound, all the UKC breeds of coonhounds have a common ancestry that is deeply rooted in the English Foxhound.
The English was first registered by UKC in 1905, under the name of English Fox & Coonhound. English hounds have excelled in both performance and conformation. The first major coonhound Field Trial of all time, the first Leafy Oak, was won by an English dog called “Bones”, owned by Colonel Leon Robinson. |
