Q. I see one of my dogs already in the databasee. How can I get myself listed as the owner?
a. Go to the Submit Data page for ‘Add a new dog to the database’. Fill out the form as completely as possible, and attach a registration document or other proof of ownership (photo, scan, or other soft copy of an official document are all fine). In the Comments, explain that this dog is already in the database, and you want to be listed as the owner..
Q. I have a new litter of pups. How do I enter them in the database?
a. In the ‘Submit Data’ tab, you will see a link for ‘Add a New Litter’. This is much simpler and quicker than adding each pup as a separate Dog submission. Basic litter information (sire, dam, whelp date) can be entered at any time after the pups are whelped. When the pups are registered, the breeder of the litter can update the litter with pup names and registration numbers, or the breeder can submit all information at one time when the pups are registered. (Breeders can always update one of their litters by going to the Litter page for that litter, and click on ‘Update this Litter’ bottom on the far right of the page.).
Q. I would like to have photos of my dog on their page. How do I do this?
a. You can submit up to four photos for each dog. Go to the Dog Detail page for the dog, and click on the Photos tab, under their list of Certifications. You will see a button to 'Upload photos for this dog'. Remember that photos should be focused on the dog. Please read the Photo Policies at: AMHPRF Database Policies
