AkC has age limits to register a litter. I think that a male has to be at least 8 months of age in order for his off spring to be registered. I think, but cant remember, a female has to be 1 year of age. Akc.org rules and regulations has that info. If AKC finds discrepancies in mixed breeds being passed of as purebred, you can lose all breeding AKC rights until the discrepancy is resolved one way or the other. All I can say is that you better have your paper work in order and all I's dotted and all T's crossed!! |
You are right about the female having to be a year old or older, and no more than 12 (who ever breeds a dog at that age anyways is cruel!). A male only has to be 7 months old for the litter to be registered, and no older than 12 as well. They will accept litters registered to a breeding dam or sire over 12 years of age with a DNA sample.
