Pomchi Papers — How to Get Official Registration Documents
Get Official Papers for Your PomchiWhat Are Pomchi Papers?
Pomchi papers record the breed, ancestry and ownership of your dog. The Pomchi is a cross between a Pomeranian and a Chihuahua, bred for a very small companion with a fox-like face and a busy, alert temperament. Adults usually weigh 4 to 8 pounds and stand 6 to 10 inches, with coats in cream, sable, black, chocolate, merle or parti patterns. Pomchis tend to bond hard with one person and announce every visitor at the door. Owners look for papers because these dogs pass between homes without registration, and a written record of the cross and the owner is hard to come by.
Can You Get Papers for a Pomchi Without AKC Registration?
The AKC does not recognize the Pomchi as a purebred breed, but Designer Kennel Club registers it as a purebred designer dog. A Pomeranian and Chihuahua cross has no path into a traditional stud book, so an owner who wants documentation has no established registry to call on. Designer Kennel Club (DKC) Foundation Dog Registration covers the cross directly, recording the type and your ownership and issuing an official certificate without requiring AKC lineage or a breeder signature. Size, color and generation make no difference to eligibility. A puppy bought from a breeder and an adult rehomed years later follow identical steps, and the certificate is issued to whoever completes the application.

What Pomchi Papers Look Like
A DKC Pomchi certificate carries the registered name you choose, the breed, the dog's date of birth, your name as owner, a unique registration number and the official DKC seal. It arrives as a PDF by email within 2–3 business days. The certificate is used for vet records, grooming and boarding check-ins, and housing documentation, and it records breed and ownership rather than DNA. The record stays with the dog and the owner who applies for it. It does not guarantee DNA.
