What do you mean when you write, "She was registered?"

A breeder will often register the litter. When the litter is registered, the breeder becomes the pup's owner of record. As a second step, then, the buyer becomes registered as the owner of record. (There may be more technical terms.)

In my case, the breeder had registered the litter. She provided us all the litter registration information so that we could complete our registration of the pup online.

Dutch's breeder provided a form that quite a few details including the litter registration number and a "pin."

The form to which I am referring will indicate whether the pup registration is to be "Limited."

The online registration process is pretty straight forward, but we did have some questions and exchanged texts with the breeder while we were filling out the form.

Hope this helps.

My breeder gave me the same stuff for Ollie but I ended up having to mail it in with pictures of him from the front and side due to his coloring.
