You would need the fathers and mothers Registered Names and numbers at a bare minimum. What association?

I found out that the father is papered but the mother is not. So now im gonna find out where the father is papered from and go from there.. So how do I go about doing that? Since the mother is not papered?

If the mother is not papered, you cannot get papers from any legit registry.

You can, however, spay/neuter your pup and do a limited registration with the AKC or UKC if you were hoping to compete in sporting events.

He can compete with the IWPA, but he must be altered. You can also get a limited registration with the UKC and compete in a number of other sports. Like Patch said, he must appear to be purebred and he must be altered. Read the link provided.

I pull for fun with my dogs, none of whom are papered. The IWPA doesn't hold pulls down here, but my ADBA club allows me to pull at fun events.

i have a question, "niko" is registered with adba, and ckc. i know if i send in his petegree i can get him registered through ukc (just have to give him a second name with niko), can i do the same for akc? if so, how? i went to the akc.org, but was unable to find anything on how to register if you have papers from another club.

(sorry not trying to take over your thread, figured it was on the same lines though).

No, the AKC's studbooks are closed. You can't register an APBT with the AKC. But you can take an AKC AmStaff and register it with the UKC.

You can reg him with UKC using the ADBA papers by doing a single registration. You fill out a form take a couple of pictures and have an evaluator look at him. You'll have to wait until he is a year old to do this. Unlike a limited reg with a single registration you get a "Full" registration so you can show and work in the UKC events
scroll down to Single reg section and read what is required

The CKC papers mean nothing IMO.
CKC is one of the registries that does not require any proof of heritage toregistrer so any one can register anything and say ir is an APBT

UKC and ADBA are APBT registries that are considered to be reputable

AKC is a great org if you have an Amstaff or other breed they accept. To have an AKC dog both Parents must be reg with AKC or one of the registries they accept. They do Not accept dogs who are reg as APBTs as Amstaffs though ironically that is how they started their reg for Amstaffs by reg APBTs since there was no such thing as an Amstaff until they did so
