Well I will re post the KC rule on this:
R&R B.3.25/20
Dogs for Competition
Dogs entered for any form of KC competition i.e. Show Classes...............must be registered in the name of the person(s)making the entry. If,at the closing date for entries, the owner(s)has applied for but have not received the KC registration certificate, the dog shall be entered in the name shown as the first choice on the application for........followed by the letters N.A.F, In the cases of transfer of ownership & change of name .....T.A,F(Rransfer Applied For) or C.N.A.F(Change of Name Applied For)
where application has been made but not receivedThese are the only references in the KC R&R 2005/006 to entering your dogs at shows when the certificate has not been received
Can you tell me where it says you have to have the certificate ????? BTW my Champion's bitch transfer certificate had not been received by me when she went BPIB at a Champ show & she was shown ARAF TAF(correctly as that was how it was supposed to be done then) & the KC never disqualified her
