Guess What We got Today!

I would strongly advise that you don't show her in conformation & the sorts (I'm not even sure if you show a dog in conformation with CKC papers).
BUT you certainly can show her in obedience, agility, etc.... Go for it girl!!
I'm glad you got her registered, then you have titles in front of her show name when she wins the obedience matches!
AND you CAN spay her!!! You aren't allowed to show a dog in heat anyways and if you're not breeding her (which you shouldn't) than get her spayed!!!

Well...maybe agility, but I really don't have the time to train her for that...So we were thinking more along the lines of therapy dog. She's perfect for it ...Jessika We aren't doing this for the status...I know you were just saying that (I could care less if shes registered I would love her just as much either way I can't believe people just register for the status )

Are you joking? People buy expensive purebred dogs and then confine them to the backyard on a chain their entire life just for status. People are pathetic.

Well what was your reason for registering her then if it wasn't status?

Now I may be wrong because that the conversation we had on the chat was a few weeks back but I recall you saying that you couldn't afford a pen or kennel etc for Roxy, but yet you can afford 500 bucks to register Tink and there is not even a reason to register her

Thats terrible! Why spend so much money on a dog, then tie it up the rest of its life...

She paid 500 for Tink, not to register her.

On the chat I said we cant build a kennel, because we dont own our house/land. Roxy chews through plastic crates, and we dont like the others...IDK why we are registering Tink! Its because we can I guess! As soon as she was described on the phone We fell in love with her...and...Registration comes in handy!

Shes uniquely identified? lol

Shes uniquely identified? lol

Then get her microchipped??

Tons of dogs are rescued or adopted from shelters every day and they don't have to be registered to be "uniquely identified". O_o

I'd register my dog even if I wasn't showing him (if it was a pure bred). Why? because I can. Besides a lot of the registries offer products with registration that can come in handy.

Kaige for AKC reg. I got a year subscription to a dog magazine, a puppy package, free ID tag. For his ASCA I get another magazine (years worth), package, rights to vote in the ASCA and a few more things too.

Why is it lame? I mean you love your dog why not. It makes a nice tribute for the wall or an addition to a scrapbook or the like.

Just me I guess.
