To be eligible to participate in the North American Whippet Racing Association Race Program, a Whippet must be individually registered to race as an adult, or litter registered to race as a puppy, by the American Kennel Club or the Canadian Kennel Club, and a copy of such registration must be filed with the Association's Registrar-Recordkeeper, prior to being permitted to race. Individual registration shall be required to be filed with the Association's Registrar-Recordkeeper prior to a Whippet being first entered for adult racing.

To register your whippet for racing in NAWRA, send a copy of your dog's AKC or CKC registration, owner's name, address, phone number and email, and the dog's call name to:

Jen Jensen
7814 Apple Valley Court
Fair Oaks CA 95628

A one time registration fee of $2.00 will be collected by the host club when the Whippet enters its first adult race meet.

A second way for the dog to be registered would be to give the race secretary a copy of the dog's registration papers and the registration fee on the day of the meet.

Once processed, all new registrations submitted to the Registrar-Recordkeeper are listed in the Unentered NAWRA Registry (FTE Registration Numbers); those whippets registered through a race secretary are noted in the grading guide update following the race meet; this document is dated and accessible from the NAWRA home page.
