Kennel Registration

 A kennel name is an exclusive breeder signature, and indicates where a dog was born.
 The owner of the dam will need one in order to apply for litter registration. It is not possible to apply for pedigrees to be issued without a registered kennel name (however simultaneous registration of a litter and your kennel is allowed).

• Once a kennel name has been registered, it cannot be changed, deleted, or re-registered.
  This is a one-time registration per member. If a kennel name has previously been used, it cannot be used in a registration by another member.
  If a person who has registered a kennel name in the past re-enrolls as a member, they must continue to use their original kennel name.
• Kennel name lengths are limited to 5 Japanese characters (numbers and non-Japanese characters are not allowed).
  If you are having difficulty with the Japanese, feel free to contact us via email for assistance.
• You cannot apply for a kennel name that has already been registered with NIPPO in the past.
