National Organizations
National Level – can look for local chapters; services vary by state and can offer good articles and educational materials
- Largest dog registry, presumption of having reputable US breeders;
- Can get information about breed standards and the temperaments you should expect in the adult dog
- Has a non-profit arm that works to re-home dogs breeders can no longer house and offers them to rescues for adoption
- Lists of breeders by state including puppies for sale – very beneficial to engage with a puppy evaluator!
- A separate registry for purebred dogs. Accepts AKC registered dogs but AKC does not recognize UKC registrations
