Question about naming dog for AKC registration?
When filling out "name" section of the AKC registration form, are you supposed to include the dog's last name?
Or is that assumed since we are giving our last name in another section of the form? If we only include the first name (Charley), will that be the only name that shows up on the registration? We want his full name to be there I think.
I've looked at the AKC site ( http://www.akc.org/reg/namingofdog.cfm), but don't see anything there. Hopefully someone who's been through this can help.
Also, any good middle name ideas for Charley? He's a boy.
Thanks!
Good question why. He's a miniature schnauzer. Our last name is Holley, so I'd like the middle name to be extra clever since the first name isn't (named after family member).
Thanks to all who have responded so far.
Whatever you put in the name section is what your dog's name will always be. AKC won't let you change it once registered even if the dog goes to someone else in the future. The registered name is permanent so make sure you make it what you want to begin with. If you want him to have your last name then you must include that when you put his name on the paperwork. You are allowed just so many letters and spaces so make sure it will all fit also.
It would be easier to help you with a middle name if I knew what breed Charley is.
If you have any additional questions, you can also call AKC and they are usually glad to help. Good luck to you.
