Here's some new ones for ya

i dont like the rule saying you must present your papers when registering because some of us send dogs with people to hunts and i for one just right down the information on my dog down and that way i dont have paperwork spread all over the country and getting lost.

You could always make copies of the dogs' papers to send with others that way you don't have to worry about the originals getting lost.

I just finished printing signs to hang up at the clubhouse about presenting membership cards and registration papers when you sign up your dogs.

That is a really good idea , I didn't know if it could be a copy or if it had to be the original .

I did ask about this and it can be a copy.

Thanks that only seems logical to carry copies and leave the originals at home .

I haven’t done much ARHA LP but my partner and I expect to do more of it real soon. So correct me if I’m wrong since we’re new at this. Do all clubs have a copying machine at the hunt or are the registration application papers in carbon copy? I haven't seen any at the limited number of trials I've been to.

Here's a scenario for you. I register a dog at hunt "A” and run my dog. Since the registration application papers are not carbon copy and there is no copying machine nearby, I don't get a copy of the required "Signed by the breed inspector" registration application form. I then can't hunt my dog at hunt "B" till I get my registration papers from NKC, right? That sucks!!!

The registration applications that you get from the clubs ARE 2-part. The club keeps the white to send in (our club secretary sends all registrations in with the hunt results.) ($18) and you keep the yellow for your records.

I guess the clubs I went to don't give the copies back. I've registered about 6 or 7 dogs in 3 or 4 different hunts now and I don't have any copies of them, I just checked. I keep all papers that I recieve for our dogs. Ask Justin how thick my registration/pedigree binder is. He's always complaining that I need to clean it out. I guess I'll have to ask for them instead. Thanks for the info. If this is true, I see how it could work and I've got no problem with it.
