How to Register My Litter with UKC®

Only those litters whelped to a sire and dam of the same breed are eligible for Litter Registration.
The litter must be registered before it reaches one year of age.

Step 1 Complete the following information: Breed, Number of living male and female puppies in the Litter, Date of Birth and Date of Breeding.

Step 2 Sire’s registered name and UKC® registration number. Indicate the Sire's registered name and UKC Registration Number in this section. The Sire Registrant (Owner) at the time of breeding as recorded by UKC records must sign his/her name(s) as it/they appear on the Sire's Registration Certificate. Sire must be permanently registered before the litter may be registered (permanent registration may be requested at the same time as the litter registration application.) Note: Sire must be between 8 months and 12 years of age at the time of breeding.

Step 3 Dam’s registered name and UKC® registration number. Indicate the Dam's registered name and UKC Registration Number in this section.
