I think I sent you one....but, you can do a search on the AKC website for Q registration. |
You're right you did, I've been living in a fog all week, antihistamines. I think it just dawned on me what you were saying. I'll have to see if I can find those links, I did a search of the AKC and couldn't find anything yet. Everytime I do a search of "Q" registry, it takes me to the "Q"uestion and Answer part.
Is this the link?
American Kennel Club - Conditional Registration. It seems like this has more to do with DNA results than someone who bought a dog without registration papers. I don't really think there is anyway the OP could register this dog with the AKC unless the breeder gave some type of registration number.
