Why it's not possible:
* Different registration systems: Both the UKC and AKC have their own breed standards, registration processes, and pedigree databases. They do not cross-register.
* Genetic lineage: To maintain breed purity and track lineage, both organizations require a registered sire and dam. You can't have one parent registered with one organization and the other with a different one.
What you can do:
1. Choose one registry: Decide which registry is most important to you based on your goals:
* UKC: More accepting of mixed-breed dogs, emphasis on working ability and temperament.
* AKC: Focuses on purebred dogs, more prestigious in some circles.
2. Register with the chosen organization:
* UKC: If you choose the UKC, you will need to obtain a UKC sire and dam to register the litter. You can find UKC-registered dogs on the UKC website.
* AKC: If you choose the AKC, you will need to obtain an AKC sire and dam to register the litter. You can find AKC-registered dogs on the AKC website.
3. Inform the registry: Once you've chosen a registry, inform them of the breeding and submit the necessary paperwork to register the puppies. Each organization has specific requirements and procedures.
Important considerations:
* Breed standards: Make sure the sire and dam meet the breed standards of your chosen registry.
* Health clearances: Ensure both parents have had the necessary health tests recommended for their breed.
* Ethical breeding: Breeding should be done responsibly for the health and welfare of the dogs and puppies.
Additional options:
* Register with a mixed-breed registry: If you want to register your puppies without a purebred pedigree, consider registries like the International All-Breed Canine Registry (IABCR) or the Continental Kennel Club (CKC).
Remember: It is important to thoroughly research and understand the registration process for each organization before making your decision.
