American Kennel Club
The American Kennel Club (or A.K.C.) is one of the largest registries of purebred dog pedigrees in the United States. Beyond maintaining their pedigree registry, it also promotes events for purebred dogs.
For a dog to be registered with the A.K.C., the dog's parents must be registered with the A.K.C. as the same breed, and the litter in which the dog is born must be registered with the A.K.C. Once these criteria are met, the dog can be registered as purebred by the A.K.C.
The registration specifies only that the dog is purely of one recognized breed; it does not specify that the dog comes from healthy or show-quality blood lines. Neither is it a reflection on the quality of the breeder or how the puppy was raised.
Registration is necessary only for breeders (so they can sell registered puppies) or for purebred dog show or purebred dog sports participation (similar to the medieval requirement of royalty for jousting competitions).
A.K.C. is not the only registy of purebred dogs, but it is the one with which most Americans are familiar.
