AKC Canine Partners is a program by the American Kennel Club that registers and promotes the training of non-traditional dog breeds, including mixed breeds, for various activities like service, therapy, and companion roles. It aims to recognize and support the talents of these dogs, regardless of breed, by providing a platform for their achievements, encouraging responsible breeding, training, and owner education. The program helps dogs and owners build strong bonds and showcases the versatility of many breeds in contributing positively to people's lives.
