You can have your puppy owners write a check made payable to AKC. You fill out all the information on the registration form and mail to AKC. I do this. AKC registration of do in my puppy owner's name does not require their signature. The registation is mailed from the AKC directly to the puppy owner. Of course, I have it stated in my contract that I will complete the AKC registration, mail it to AKC, and that AKC will forward the owner registration directly to my puppy owner within 8wks after I complete my part. This allows for all processing time by saying 8weeks.

Thanks! AKC e-mailed me a Full litter Offspring Plus registration form on which I'll have families fill in their part. This will then cost families only $10 which is cool also.

Post above helped me understand how this works (OK, 10 pups at 8 weeks old is enough to make anyone ditsy :)
