Registration Information
Please fill out registration form completely.
It is very important to provide accurate parentage information. We DO NOT accept entries with animals just identified as "Grade". Every animals MUST HAVE a date of birth and if you are on DHI Test, then we need the ID number that the animal is Identified by. This is for animals regardless of their breed. Your registration papers will list the breed composition and percentage of your animal.
