More excuses for ineptitude from the KC

Why, in spite of closing the brilliant KCAB scheme so that it's now incredibly difficult for buyers to source responsible breeders, and putting up the cost of registration to an astronomical £26 per puppy plus an extra fee for sending paper copies of the registrations, do the KC still take so long to send the documents? I've just received a dismissive email saying that they are inundated with work so we have to be patient with their delays in completing the registrations. I'm so fed up with the KC. Why don't they just get enough staff to deal with big registration demand. If they had any competition, they would have to improve things fast; but they haven't, so they don't.

Thanks you for your review and your valuable feedback which is appreciated. We have looked at your recent litter application which was submitted during the Christmas period when your puppies were over 13 weeks old. As there have been only 4 working days since your submission this is not a case of a lack of resource but a lack of working days for processing. We understand the point you make regarding the auto messaging you receive when you submit your application and we will pass your comments on to the team. Thank you once again; we will be in touch if we require anything further from you in regards to your application.

Gloria was wonderful, helpful & knowledgeable

Spoke with Gloria today and she was very kind incredibly helpful I have had many bad experiences with KC and today was the very first one Iv had with someone who was helpful, kind and so knowledgeable. I will always be asking to speak to her in the future and today’s experience has given me a slight glimmer of hope about KC again

Olivia and Natalie couldn't do enough to help me when registering a litter.
I last used the (R)KC 9 years ago. They were elitist, rude and unhelpful.
What a change now!
Absolutely fantastic service

I bought 2 puppies from a registered…

Update 05/12/2025 thank you to the KC for the response sadly this does not address the ethical discord with regards them being happy to register and advertise puppies on their website but take no responsibility for the environment they are breed in. I am not disappointed with my dogs at all, i feel sad for their start in life. I am disappointed in the system that permits and supports puppy farming under another guise. But it’s got Royal approval so that’s ok then.

I bought 2 puppies from a registered breeder, one became very unwell within the 1st 6 months. A roller coaster of OOH vet visits, medication and food changes, then emergency surgery. Hopefully now resolved but both on a special diet now likely for life. Lots of warning signs on buying these puppies but as the seller was a registered kennel club breeder and us grieving over the death of one of our first dogs this didn’t really click. This was basically a private puppy farm endorsed by the kennel club who take no responsibility for the health or welfare of the puppies sold via their website. I’ve looked on the website to try and raise concerns and there is no way of doing this. There were 4 plus litters across 2 whelping pens all toileting on newspaper and no attempts to train. Another litter was due to arrive when we visited.

Just posting as a warning to other buyers please do not be as naive as me as assume this is ok because it’s kennel club approved.

We did try to adopt a rescue before buying but all the rescue companies we tried, despite meeting all the requirements, could not find us a small to medium dog or one even offered us a dog then postponed the offer pending medical treatment for the dog and stopped responding to our emails.

Definitely would not use this pathway to owing a dog in the future. It’s a minefield.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review about your situation.
We appreciate how distressing it can be when the purchase of a puppy does not meet expectations and we are sorry you have had cause to notify us of your experience in May 2024.

The Royal Kennel Club does not register any breeders, only dogs. Our Find A Puppy pages do also include a disclaimer:

"The Royal Kennel Club makes no warranty as to the quality or fitness of any puppies offered for sale. We cannot accept responsibility for any transaction between puppy buyer and the breeder arising from publication of the listing.
The Royal Kennel Club cannot facilitate the vetting of breeders advertising on Find a Puppy on behalf of a puppy buyer nor can we guarantee the accuracy of any statement made by any breeder advertising on Find a Puppy.
The Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities involving Animals) (England) Regulations 2018 provides that licensed breeders must provide a recognisable photograph. A puppy buyer is advised to ensure that you meet both the breeder and see the dam of the litter and the puppy itself before committing to a purchase of the dog."

You should be aware that if a breeder licence is required, which depend on the number of litters bred per year, then this is issued by the local authority who should carry out an inspection of the premises as part of the licensing process. Your breeder will have had a breeder licence at the time of your puppy purchase.

We do advise that new owners should thoroughly research their chosen breed to ensure that any appropriate or necessary health checks have been carried out before purchasing a puppy. We do not wish to appear to sound dismissive of what is obviously a serious and upsetting situation, but to explain that in such cases, it is a matter for individual breeders to decide how best to carry on their breeding programme, and owners to research the breed, using the knowledge and information that is available.

What is important to note is that the Royal Kennel Club cannot intervene in an individual’s private breeding programme ; we simply do not have the authority to do so.

The sale of a dog may be covered under any relevant sales law and therefore if you believe that you have either been misled over the sale of this dog or to find out whether you are able to obtain any recompense, we would suggest that contact your local Consumer Advice Bureau who should be able to offer you guidance on this – they can be contacted via their website https://www.gov.uk/citizens-advice-consumer-service.

Whilst the KC is not able to directly intervene, where an enforcement body, for example - the RSPCA, Police, Consumer Advice or Environmental Health department is contemplating proceedings and seeks information from us then we will always try to assist - upon receipt of a direct Data Protection Act request.

We are sorry that your experience was not as you would have hoped and we wish you and your dogs well.

They are an absolute joke and a bunch of scammers. Registered my dog then told me they couldn't do it because i hadn't registered my pup with another kennel 1st. Both parents are registered, with affiliated clubs. They registered my 1st pup under the same circumstances. Why would i register it with 2 kennel clubs. Still waiting for my refund. No point in them existing.
Thanks for the reply but you know full well who I am and hey presto the link you provide is under maintenance. Just a dodgy link you always use, as you are a con. Refund me now
