"MAIN REGISTER"
(Show Pedigree)

The main register has full rights. The certificate lists the dog's full registered name, sex, colour, date of birth and a three-generation pedigree, and also shows the name and address of both the owner and breeder. It is on an A4 sheet of paper with a Burgundy decorative border.

Dogs listed on this register can compete in conformation shows and gain titles such as Australian Champion. A dog and bitch both listed on the main register may have their progeny registered as pure bred. You have to be a member of your State Canine Governing Association to transfer a dog to or from this register and to your name as the owner. The C.C.C.Q  is the Qld Canine Association.

"LIMITED REGISTER"
(Pet Pedigree)

The limited register has lesser or "limited" rights. The dog is still pedigreed and the certificate lists the dog's full registered name, sex, colour, date of birth and a three-generation pedigree, and also shows the name and address of both the owner and breeder. It is on an A4 sheet of paper with a Green decorative border.

Dogs listed on this Register cannot compete in conformation shows nor gain points towards conformation titles but can still be entered in Obedience Trials and similar. Progeny of this dog cannot be registered as pure bred. A dog can be moved from the limited register to the main register, but only with the written approval of the breeder.
