Litters should initially be registered by 12 weeks of age.
Puppies may be given a complete Registered Name, OR a Temporary Identifier which includes the Kennel Name, plus any other designation that identifies each individual puppy with a unique alias. It can be a call name, color/sex/markings, or a code of the breeders choice.
The owner name, address, phone, and email fields may also be left blank, if the puppy does not yet gave a permanent home. In these cases, the registration certificate can be held by the registrar until informed of the owner and their contact information, at which time the certificate will be sent to the new owner. There is no additional charge for updating dog names or owners before the certificates are sent. If the breeder prefers to receive the registration certificates before final names and/or homes are decided, the certificates will be issued with the dog's temporary name/code, with the breeder as owner. An application for updating the registration information may be submitted whenever that infomration is known, and a new registration certificate will be sent out.
Appropriate documentation of MDR1, CEA, and FGF5 official test results, and other required information must accompany the registration/pedigree application. No applications will be processed until all documentation is complete. Please note that documentation from DNA and MDR1/CEA/FGF5 labs must *clearly* identify each individual. (ie "Puppy 1", "Puppy 2", "Male 1", Male 2", "Female 1" etc are NOT accetable.) Either registered name, puppy name, or *specific* description must be on the laboratory documents, so it is clear which results go with each individual puppy.
We recommend testing parents and all puppies with Embark Veterinary Laboratory, which will show MDR1 & CEA status for each individual, and they will do DNA Parentage verification of the litter at no charge. If the litter is not Embark tested, GenSol DNA Parentage Test kits may be ordered through the IWC for litters in US or Canada. Contact Tricia Conklin to order test kits. Parentage verification for European submissions must be provided by a certified genetic testing laboratory.
All applications are currently available and may be submitted directly online. Necessary documentation may be provided either by forwarding official laboratory result emails or scanned copies of laboratory results to Registrar, or by mailing hard copies.
Payments
may be made via PayPal directly on submission form, or a check payable to "IWC" may be mailed.
Confirmation of receipt of applications will be made within 72 hours, and registration and pedigree documents should be ready within 2 weeks of receipt of application and *ALL* necessary documentation.
