Hello,
First real post! Oh my. I am wondering how do I register my dog to the AKC & UKC as an American Staffordshire Terrier so I can compete with her in events down the road? I do know that she is a purebred bully, but her parents have no paperwork. I'm also aware that I can't register her with UKC as an APBT as that will disqualify me from registering her with AKC (leaving Lotus out of AKC events).
So, on the AKC website, do I register her as a "Mixed Breed"? Which I am 98% sure she is not a mix. Or, do I go through the process of registering her under the "Purebred Alternative Listing/Indefinite Listing Privilege (PAL/ILP)" or "Open Registration"?
This AKC stuff is new to me, so hoping for someone to be able to point me in the right direction.
Also, how should I go about registering her through the UKC? Limited Registration ...? or ... I want to make sure I do this right since I am pretty sure I'll only have the chance to do it once.
Thank you in advance!
