FAQ
My dog is registered in 2 different countries – which one should I use in 360?
Always use CKC if applicable. If not, use the registration that is the most complete and easiest for us to process.
Why was my dog rejected??
The reason for rejections can be found in the email you received or under 'notifications' in your 360 account.
What exactly are you looking for when I enter a dog?
We are looking to see that ALL information is entered and ALL the information provided matches the documents you have uploaded. Numbers, names and dates must match exactly and you must be the registered owner of the dog.
My dog is not a registered purebred…what documents do you need?
Even unregistered dog may be registered and compete as a mixed breed. You just need to make sure your dog has a permanent form of identification (Tattoo or Microchip) and upload proof of this number under registration documents. The best way is either a form from your vet or the microchip company.
What do I enter as ‘variety’?
Variety is used for breeds with more than one type. Belgian Shepherd Dogs are the most common with varieties including; Malinois, Tervuren etc.. Variety does not mean colour or coat length.
Can I add my AKC registered dog?
Yes, but as the AKC does not list microchip numbers on their registrations, please upload a vet letter or document from the microchip company as proof of identification under registration documents.
If I leave some information blank, can’t you fill it out?
No, all information needs to be complete and accurate.
I am going to handle someone else’s dog, can I enter the dog under my profile?
No, only the registered owner of the dog can add the dog to their profile. If you are going to trial/handle someone else's dog, they add the dog and you pick the dog when entering a trial.
My dog is owned by my spouse, child, parent etc... can I enter the dog under my profile?
No, only the registered owner of the dog can add the dog to their profile. If your family member owns the dog, you will either have to have the CKC (or other applicable registry) add you as co-owner or change your GSSCC membership to 'family'.
The dog I want to add has not been officially transferred into my name, but I own it. Can I add it to my profile?
Not until you have the updated CKC paperwork showing you as the owner.
I trialled my dog with another organization, how do I update my dog’s titles?
Simply unregister your dog, add the title and upload a copy of your scorebook showing proof. Click Request Registration Approval.
I want to enter a show and I need to add a pedigree – how do I do that?
Simply unregister your dog, add a copy of the certified pedigree (a screen shot of a pedigree database is not acceptable). Click Request Registration Approval.
I also need a scorebook...how do I do that?
Dogs must be fully registered in 360 before a scorebook may be purchased. To purchase a new, registered book - Click here
My dog has a CKC Event Registration Number (ERN) or Temporary Competition number (TCN) (ERN) can I use that?
