America's Pet Registry, Inc. is an internationally recognized association of responsible pet owners, breeders, distributors, veterinarians, retailers, pet product manufacturers, and other concerned parties dedicated to the humane care of animals, the preservation of quality bloodlines, and the individual's right of pet ownership. As such, all share a deep commitment to our animal wards.

When you register your dog you ensure:

Proof of ownership
Documentation of purebred status
Documentation of your dog's name and lineage
Protection against restrictive legislative ordinances
Protection against legal and/or custody issues

Please call our office to request replacement certificates.
Certificates are available to current owners of record. If you have not register your pet in your name yet, you will need to contact the breeder, pet shop, or person you purchased your dog from and have them order a replacement.

APRI does accept dogs from other legitimate registries for 'dual registration.'
We may request a pedigree on dual registrations if the dog's parents aren't currently in our database.
There is no charge for dual registering a dog that is already registered in your name with the other registries; however, a fee may apply if the dog needs to be transferred to your name.

If your dog has puppies you will need to fill out a litter application to get registration applications for your puppies.
This can be done online if you own the male and female and both are APRI registered. Otherwise, you can download the litter application or call
us and we'll mail you a registration form for each puppy in the litter to give to the new puppy owners.

APRI is introducing the Kennel Assist Program and conducts kennel assist visits at the request of the breeder for the purpose of improving kennel facilities and breed quality.

At this time DNA testing cannot determine purebred status. DNA, however, can determine parentage.
If there is a dispute of parentage, APRI may request the breeder to perform DNA testing.

Yes.
Check out our website for the current show calendar. In APRI dog shows,
dogs are judged against their breed standard and earn points towards their championship.
We try to keep our shows enjoyable and welcome children to our show ring.

Make sure you have a breeder ID # and both the sir and dam are APRI and/or PRA registered in your name.
Make sure the sir and dam are the same breed and that you are using the same breed code. For example: L06-ZA-AC-31160T and L06-AZ-AH-31180T.
Hybrid litters must be submitted at the hybrid website: http://achclub.com

If you select the photo option you will be given instructions to upload your photo at the end of the registration process.
Extremely large photo files may halt the upload process.
Very small photos may appear blurry on the certificates.
Try to chose a photo that is at least 5" by 7" but no larger than 9" by 12" with a resolution of 100-200 dpi. This will also make the uploading process quicker.

Not all registration packages are list online, if you want to order an option not listed online, just put a notation in the comment section
and we'll adjust the order and/or charges to fulfill your request.

Due to the economy we have lowered our late fees to make registering your dog more affordable.
We appreciate your business in these difficult times.
