The American Kennel Club is a wonderful registry but it takes so long to register a puppy that is a non-standard color!! To register a puppy that is a non-standard color you must print out 2 photos of the puppy and send those 2 photos and the registration application to the American Kennel Club’s mailing address, this is a very long and unnecessary process and as a result many owners and breeders don’t take the time to register their new puppies.

All that we ask is that the American Kennel Club would make an online option to be able to register a purebred puppy of a non-standard color online by uploading 2 photos to the American Kennel Club website and add all the other color codes for the non-standard colors to the website as well. This would cut the wait time in half, would be an up to date form of registering purebred puppies and more owners and breeders would register their new puppies!

Please help by signing this petition!!

I have a non-standard color miniature schnauzer that would like to have registered as AKC. I have her registered elsewhere because of her coloring.

It should have been done already, I have spoken to AKC several times about it. It's ridiculous to make it more time consuming and difficult to register the beautiful non-standard colors.

If you have her AKC registration application you can still register her but it takes a lot of waiting...This website will give you the info you need to register her. http://mcdorable.com/index.php/info/akc-miniature-schnauzer-colors

I think its a great idea to include all colors of a breed even non traditional ones!

It would make it so much easier if we could register special colors online!
