There has been a recent discussion in a schnauzer group about this. It
appears that AKC is allowing more letters than they used to. How many is
unclear. The old number appears to have been 25. Then other people claimed
it was now 30.

One guy said that he recently did an on-line registration that accepted 36
letters (including spaces). He didn't know if it would have accepted more
but that it went through just fine with 36. And that he had recently done
an AKC registration of a foreign dog that was 35 letters and spaces - and
that was *not* done on-line.

I'm with Robin - the less writing I have to do on entries, the better.

I think it's 25, and that includes spaces.

I tell you that after writing Cala's name on a bazillion agility entry
forms never again will I have such a long name (BJF O'er The Hills N Far
Away). Puppy is going to be Regatta It's About Time--much shorter! Much
easier!

I agree, brevity is good.
Unfortunately the breeders kennel name is huge. Since she gave me the
puppy, because she knows i will promote her kennel name. Leaving off the
offending name is not an option.

Get a rubber stamp with the name on it. Congrats on your pup, Diddy.

thank you. Fortunately most online entries hold the name in the database,
so I only need to type it once
