Agreement
I understand the difference between AKC Limited and Full Registrations
Yes
No
Please explain the difference
Type option 4
Puppies are sold on AKC Limited Registrations and non-breeding contracts. Full registration/breeding right may be obtained by those who are members of and follow the Code of Ethics of the GRCA and/or are experienced and reputable exhibitors. If you are wanting to breed, are you willing to have a co-ownership with Grapevine Goldens and/or able to provide extensive references to justify sole ownership on full registration? Check all that apply.
