Help re kc registering a SBT Questions

Hope you can help and Im posting in the right place. A collegue of my hubbies has recently bought a Staffy, He's about 9 months old and shes thinking of showing him.
Here comes the problem hes not KC reg and the breeders said they hadnt bothered as they dont show.
If someone on here who understand sbt pedigrees can PM me I have a copy of the pedigree , basically we need to know if the pedgree is suitable for registering or if theres no hope.

Your friend cannot registyer the dog with the KC, only the breeder can do that.

The fact that the breeder didn't bother to register the litter rings alarm bells to an extent. In many cases, it means that the litter was not eligible for registration due to the dam being too young or one or other (or both) of the parents having their pedigrees endorsed so that any pups they produced couldn't be registered (it's a tool to try to prevent indiscriminate breeding).

Of course, it could be one or other (or both) of the parents are not KC registered themselves and therefore pups can't be registered either.

Your friend would be best to speak to the breeder and ask if it is possible for the breeder to register the pup at this stage.

Your colleague will not be able to register the SBT for breed showing only the breeder can & if the parents are not KC registered then the dog cannot be registered other than for KC activities(flyball, obedience etc)

She can show him at Companion Shows(they used to be called Exemption Shows)but these are only fun shows & the wins count for nothing except the enjoyment of the day

The breeder will only be able to register the litter if both parents ae KC registered

Are the sire and dam KC reg and did she not bother to reg the pups? What is the pedigree under Kennel club?

If the parents are not KC reg then she will not be able to show at all. There are other types shows ed reid etc, i will get a few more details but these are for more agile and fitter staffords? alot of KC reg staffords do attend the sporting/athletic show but normally in better shape than the KC show, it requires that more than KC show do, even thou you cannot have an over weight dog in the KC shows.

if the parents are KC registered and there are no endorsements rendering pups ineligible for registration, then your friends should ask the breeder to register the 'pup' now.
late registrations are more expensive but it is possible.

ty all not sure the breeder doesnt seem to have and affix butlooking a the pd gt granparents are champions on one side and GGT grandparents are champions on the other. I suspect there not and its probably not good enough to show but I dont know al lot about Staffies to be honest.
My oh is useless i'm going to ring the puppy owner tomorrow for more info.

any pics? who are the champs? could u find this info out?
