PET ENROLLMENT TRANSFER
Helpful information to keep your pet protected when you are rehoming your pet.
What should I do if I plan to rehome my pet?Mike Pohlman
- You will want to transfer your pet’s AKC Reunite record to the new pet owner.
- There are three ways to initiate a transfer request for a pet:
- Initiate Transfer Request online for $22.95
- Complete and send a PAPER FORM for $29.95
- Email us a request to mail you a paper form
What happens after I submit a pet transfer request?Mike PohlmanAKC Reunite will consider additional information regarding a transfer, such as surrender documents, court orders, adoption and sale agreements.
- Once the request is received, AKC Reunite will process your transfer and transfer fee. We will email or mail the Primary Contact currently on file requesting approval of the transfer of the pet’s enrollment out of their name. (We do not share your information with the Primary Contact on file, unless you authorize us to do so.)
- The Primary Contact has 30 days to respond.
The pet’s transfer will be handled accordingly based on whether the Primary Contact approves or rejects the request to transfer the pet’s enrollment. - If the Primary Contact does not respond within 30 days, the transfer will be processed. Once received, the entire transfer process can take up to 35 days.
How long does it take to transfer a pet’s record into my name?Mike Pohlman
The pet’s transfer will be complete within 35 days of processing your request:
- You will receive an email or letter confirming your enrollment transfer request, or notification that your request has been declined.
- If your transfer is declined, your transfer order payment will be refunded.
