Release 4.0 - January 20, 2020:
Birthdates Displaying Correctly
The issue causing birthdates to be displayed incorrectly by one day on the portal has been resolved. All dog birthdate(s) were always correct in CKC’s main IT system, even though they appeared one day off when you logged into your online portal account. This update was implemented system wide.
Consent Emails
The issue requiring foreign breeders and other past owners to provide consent to a registration application when they are no longer an owner has been resolved. This email is no longer being sent.
Dog and Litter Registration Emails requesting consent from owners or co-owners have been improved to ensure a simplified process.
Previous Releases:
Release 3.0- January 7, 2020
Improved dog & litter application emails
Once an application is submitted in the online portal, an automatic email will confirm a successful application submission and now includes details of the dog/litter registered for your records.
New Owner - email addresses no longer required
When a dog is transferred to a new owner, email addresses are no longer required for the new owners.
New owner emails
Automatic emails to new puppy/dog owners to consent to dog registrations and to join the CKC Portal have been turned off.
Members can manually enter addresses
To ensure accuracy, the CKC Portal uses the Canada Post database to autofill and update address information. This release gives members the ability to override the Canada Post address should their data in Canada Posts’ database be incomplete or incorrect.
Microchips 900x and 990x are now supported
This release gives members the ability to register 900x and 990x microchip numbers.
