How can I check the points or awards for my dog?
Answer:

You can easily check the points (Conformation, Companion Events or Performance Events) on your dog through the AKC website and On-Line Store at:

http://www.akc.org/store/free/

If you do not already have an account, you will first need to register as a new user and then login to the store.

To create an account:
1. Click "Store" on the gray bar at the top of any page of our website.
2. Click "View all reports and information."
3. Click "Create Account" in the brown box to the right.
4. Provide account and contact information. Boldface labels identify the required fields.
5. Click "Create Account."
You are now logged in.
For subsequent logins:

  1. Click "Store" on the gray bar at the top of any page of our website.
  2. Click "View all reports and information."
  3. Click "Login" from the top of the page, the bottom of the page, or from the brown box to the right.

When you enter the online store, you will notice a link on the left labeled "AKC Reports." Click this, and then select "Points and Awards." If you have not yet logged in, you will be prompted to do so.
Select a dog from the drop down menu. If the dog for which you are searching does not appear in the menu, you can search for a new one by clicking "click here to search for a new one." In the pop-up window that appears, you can enter either the registration number or the breed and exact spelling of the name. Click "Go." This may bring up multiple dogs. Select the dog you want by clicking on its registration number. If you intend to use the selected dog for all reports, click "use this dog for all reports."
To find the number of points your dog has earned in an AKC event, click "View Points/Summary of the Title Progression for this dog."

You can now obtain point information and title progression for all types of AKC events, including Conformation, Obedience, Agility, Field Trials, Hunting Tests and all other AKC sanctioned event types. To view the events not included in the actual Awards Record, click "View events not included in the Awards Record at this time." Please review this link before purchasing an Awards Record.

You may also view a sample of an Awards Record before purchasing by clicking "View a sample Awards Record."
To order your report, scroll to the bottom of the page and click "Add to Wagon." When the product is ready for purchase, you can click "Checkout" to pay for it.
When you have finished, select "Logout" from the toolbar on any page in the Online Store.

There was a mistake in the show/trial/test results recorded for my dog. How do I get this corrected?
Answer:

Please contact the Special Services Department at: awards@akc.org

Results for events are not recorded with the AKC until two to three weeks after the event.
You may see incorrect results recorded on a Superintendent’s website, but the correct results could get recorded with the AKC.

My dog is a purebred, but isn’t registered. I want to compete in AKC events. Can I still do that?
Answer:

The Purebred Alternative Listing/Indefinite Listing Privilege (PAL/ILP) is designed to allow dogs that are ineligible for registration, but are distinguishable as a member of an AKC registrable breed, to participate in many AKC Companion and Performance Events.

Once enrolled in the PAL/ILP program, entering AKC events is as easy as with a registered dog. The only difference is that instead of an AKC registration number, you would list the dog's PAL/ILP number on the entry form.

Applying for this program is a simple process. PAL/ILP applications can be downloaded from our website. You will need to go to http://www.akc.org/pdfs/masterform.cfm. The application is in .pdf format and requires the use of Adobe's Acrobat Reader to view the application. Adobe's Acrobat Reader can be obtained free from www.adobe.com. You must use Adobe Acrobat Reader version 4.0 or newer to view the files.
If you are not able to download the application, you can email PAL@akc.org to request an application. When requesting a form via email, please include your name and current mailing address.

Enrollment in the Purebred Alternative Listing/Indefinite Listing Privilege program is not to be construed as an alternative form of registration, but as a listing so that dogs who are ineligible for AKC registration may participate in AKC Companion and Performance Events. A PAL/ILP may be cancelled for cause.

Over 2,000 dogs in this innovative and fast-growing AKC program were granted PAL/ILP numbers in the year 2001, and the AKC awarded more than 2,000 AKC titles to PAL/ILP dogs in that same year. Enrollment in the PAL/ILP program is easy, and the benefits for you and your dog are endless.

For more information or questions about the program, contact PAL@akc.org. You can also find additional information on our website at http://www.akc.org/reg/ilpex.cfm.
