The UKC referred to in some of the messages here is the United Kennel Club located in Kalamazoo, Michigan. It is the 2nd largest registery. Please go here
United Kennel Club to find out more about it. It is a very legit registery unlike Universal Kennel Club, and others that are trying to mimic their acronym. I have been showing exclusively UKC for about 6 years now and really enjoy the organization. They promote the "Total Dog" meaning one that can go in the conformation ring and win and still go out and work.
Just thought I'd help clear things up a little bit.
