I have an 8 year old American Pit Bull Terrier that has not been papered. He is from a litter were the male has papers but the female was adopted from the pound, therefore has no papers. My question is if it is possible to get my dog papered?

For a dog that is not already registered with UKC as part of a litter, and whose parents are not both UKC registered, we do offer Single Registration. The rules for Single Registration for the American Pit Bull Terrier are as follows:

1. The dog must be at least one year of age

2. Completed UKC "American Pit Bull Terrier Application for Single Registration" (available on our website at http://www.ukcdogs.com/res/pdf/fo23adm.pdf)

3. Copy of dog's registration certificate from UKC recognized registry. For APBT we recognize the American Kennel Club, American Dog Breeders Association (ADBA), The Kennel Club, The Canadian Kennel Club or any FCI registry

4. Copy of dog's complete three generation pedigree (photocopy or handwritten pedigree is acceptable)

5. Three color photos (one of each side and one from the front in a standing position)

6. The dog must be inspected by an approved UKC inspector. View Inspectors List for contact information for the inspector in your area. If an inspector is not available, a 20 minutes video presentation may be submitted in lieu of an inspection. The video should show the dog in a public place interacting and being pet by strangers

7. Registration fee of $45.00 (payable as a personal check, money order or MasterCard or Visa)

Please note that these requirements are needed to register your dog with UKC. Examinations and DNA profiling provide limited information and would not be sufficient to register a dog or verify a dog is purebred. A dog without a complete three generation pedigree and registration with an approved registry will not be considered for registration with UKC. If you are unable to provide all of the above requirements, you may list your dog through our Limited Privilege program if the dog has been spayed or neutered.

Please feel free to send me a P.M. to request an "American Pit Bull Terrier Application for Single Registration" be mailed to you, be sure to include your name complete mailing address and name of the application you wish to receive.
