AKC lowering registration numbers for full recognition from FSS?

Hello, I have some questions regarding registration...

I live in the US and I have a five year old male CsV [Loki von Wolfen] that I would like to register with the AKC/FSS and UKC [I could add 1 number to the list!

] but I have a problem which, apparenty, is I imported him from Canada, not Europe and since the Canadian Kennel Club doesn't accept our CsV as a breed yet, [and I've heard has no intention to do so anytime soon] I'm not able to submit a three generation pedigree/registration number since the CKC is the only registry in Canada that both the AKC/UKC accept. I wrote to the breeder in Quebec, and he said he gave up on the CKC and is hoping to register the litter [finally] with the 'Canine Federation of Canada' [CFC] which so far only has five breeds on its list, though he said they are adding 17 more this year, CsV included. It is not affiliated with the CKC or the FCI though and I have no idea if the AKC will accept it as a worthy foreign registry....

Another thing I see being a hurdle is I only co-own my dog, with the co-owner being the breeder in Quebec. Can I register a dog in the US when it is still technically co-owned by a foreigner??

Anyone know anything about any of this?? Any help would be appreciated since if I'm going to help out with a US breed club I'd like to have a legal canine citizen!!

Thanks! ~Sonia and Loki
