  • Sire and dam are entered into the AWPGA Database

  • All health tests are showing for both the sire and dam in the database.  Must include hips, elbows, eyes and thyroid with test dates prior to the whelp date of the litter.

 What may result in my 2025 Breeder List Application being denied?

  • Sire and Dam did not have the required health tests at whelp date

  • Litter was not registered with AKC

  • Puppies were not microchipped
