The rules of Wolfdog.org are that the dogs have a valid pedigree and hips results not less than "C" and good ED results. As well as kennel-club/breed club-specific requirements on registration & breeding.. so in CZ Republic, for example, Bonitation et al.

AKC requirements basically don't exist outside of having a valid pedigree, and the required minimum ages for males and females are so young that it wouldn't be really possible for mating to occur before that anyway..

CHIC is decidedly not an AKC requirement for registration.. it is strictly optional and voluntary, I wonder what will be done?
