The UKC (United Kennel Club)
"The UKC is a well-respected registry for many rare breeds as well as those recognized by the AKC. If you are shopping for a breed not recognized by the AKC, do your homework and find out which breed registries are commonly used by respected breeders."
The UKCI:
UKCI - Universal Kennel Club International Caters to the commercial dog industry and promises 'Complete Privacy Protection' for all breeders. Does not have a Code Of Ethics and brags about that. Does not currently impose any fines or penalties upon its members for violations of its policies, rules, regulations, guidelines, programs, restrictions and systems. * Registers* mixed breeds for breeding purposes. Will register unknown pedigree. NAPDR - North American Purebred Dog Registry Dog that does not have registration papers or proof of pedigree may be registered with NAPDR. Registries |
nancy she is talking about UKC as in United Kennel Club. Very different and very strict. or I am assuming she is. Go to ukcdogs.com and you will see the difference. You will also see that they are almost the same AKC.

Doesn't say anything about rare breeds and I know they only accept breeds that are recognized by AKC. Unless something is changed. i have shown UKC for about two years now.
