Registered AKC dogs without kennel name - Page 1

Do dogs registered with the AKC with no kennel name have the right to compete at the US national schutzhund championship if they qualify? And do I also have to have the dog registered with the United Schutzhund Clubs of America? Or AKC registeration is enough?

A dog can be named whatever to compete in SchH it doesnt even have to be registered (can be listed as a 'mix" with USA).

To compete at a regional/national level the dog has to be registered with USA.

Thanks Jessica for taking the time to answer my question!

Is there clubs other than the AKC that offer registeriation?

The official registration is with AKC and is required for any event. You can in addition to this register your dog with USA, but you dont have to in order to participate in any events. However to participate in any SCHH trial your dog has to have a scorebook, which you can obtain from any workingdog association (usual AWDF). To participate at regional/national level you have to be a member of the host organization. If you are looking at USA events then you would have to be an USA member.
