The Working Plummer Terrier Registry (WPTR) was founded in 2007
for the benefit of plummer terrier owners who have found themselves
unable to register their dogs with organisations that do not accept
the "new blooded" plummer terriers and have had difficulty
registering their dogs with some of the Plummer Terrier Clubs. The
Registry welcomes both "pure" and "new blooded"
dogs of legitimately traceable ancestry. We will register
adult dogs previously registered with the PTA, PTCGB and the more
recent EPTR. Although a fairly new Register, the WPTR is an accurate
database that can trace back to the original dogs of the 1950's
that were used to create what is known today as "The Plummer
Terrier".
The aim of the Register is to provide a means of recording and
registering dogs of known traceable ancestry that have previously
been excluded from registering with other plummer terrier organisations
for one reason or another without bias. It is a fact that
in some cases dogs have previously been denied papers due to personal
differences and this is the reason Registry was initially founded.
The Registry will accept both the "pure"
and the more recent "new blooded" plummer terriers,
including tri-colour and putty nosed (pale nosed) of
known traceable ancestry.
We will endeavour to register all eligible dogs, without
discrimination, however registration of adult dogs will remain at
the discretion of the Registrar and dogs must be of known traceable
ancestry - we do not accept "plummer type" dogs -
we must have evidence of their ancestry. For further details

The Registry has the backing of Mrs Norma Plummer, wife of the
late Dr David Brian Plummer, who developed the breed and whose name
the dogs carry on to this day.
