The American Kennel Club is best known as a registery of pure bred dogs in the United States. Along with that, the AKC also promotes different events such as: show dog competitions, agility course competitions and conventions. They also partner with Eukanuba to produce the Eukanuba National Championships which is higly televised on national tv.

When someone purchases a full bred dog, it is registered with the AKC to verify its authenticity. Some people choose not to register their dog with AKC. If they don't the owner and their dog won't get the special perks that the AKC provides.

Perks include:

An authentic AKC cerficate.
Complementary trial pet health care and visit to the vet
Eligibilty to register for AKC dog shows
and much more...

Yes, there are some fees...but lets not think about that.

When purchashing your puppy, asking for AKC papers verifies that you are getting an authentic and healthy dog. Asking the breeder for these papers verifies that you are recieving a pure-bred healthy dog.
