are you registrated?

[Vela]

Yup both of mine are registered with the AKC. I have their registration papers stapled to pictures of the dogs in case one were to ever be lost or stolen, I can claim rightful ownership without a hassle. Also, they are only in my name so there would be no doubt who they would go with were there ever to be a "separation" of ways in the family. Not that I forsee that or anything LOL, was just an insurance policy that they would go nowhere but with me. The main reason I registered them though was proof of ownership should they ever get loose, lost, or stolen and recovered. They place found or shelter dogs with area rescues, rather than put any down, so I wanted proof of ownership were that ever to happen.

Nova and Buck are both AKC registered. Luka is supposedly but I've never seen the papers. She was adopted from the humane society - her foster mom said that the original owners had her AKC papers somewhere but couldn't find them. Mandy obviously is not regisitered

Finn had papers, but I never filled them out. Freckles was from the shelter and Dudley was given to David as a one year old. Not sure how he was obtained originally.
