New Puppy - Need Registered Name & Registration Questions

Rileys mom

Forums Enthusiast
I recently purchased a Sheltie puppy. He is a blue merle male, I am calling Riley. I am having trouble coming up with a registered name? Any ideas?

The registration paperwork I was given for Riley is with the Continental Kennel Club. Untill I looked it up I had not heard of this particular kennel club. What opinions do people have about this registry?

I am interested in agility and would like to register AKC.

Thanks
 
The Continental Kennel Club is for breeders that can't register AKC for whatever reason. Either their dogs are not AKC registered (there must be an unbroken chain of registered dogs to maintain AKC registration), or they have been otherwise suspended from privileges. It was made up so that they can still say they sell "registered" puppies.

If your puppy did not come with AKC registration papers, you can use the Purebred Alternative Listing services with AKC. The dog must be altered, but once registered there, they can compete in the companion/performance events appropriate for the breed.
