registering chips with akc

I have an AVID chip that I implanted and then lost the pre-paid registration form. I notice on the AKC papers, you can put a chip number on there and get it registered with AKC. Has anyone done this before? Can any chip be done this way or are there chips specifically for AKC?

Re: registering chips with akc

AKC does have their own chip, the trovan. However, any chip/dog can be registered w/ CAR through AKC.

Go back to your vet, have him scan your dog for the number and give you another registration form. Did the same thing a year ago, lol.

Re: registering chips with akc

Oops, I see that you did it yourself. Your vet should still be able to scan and give you the registration form anyway.

Re: registering chips with akc

I register all my chips with AKC, not the manufacturer. Cheaper and only a one-time fee. Some chip companies require an annual fee.
