| AKC is the official registration organization like FCI.
UDC is as described except they do not support the FCI standard, they follow the AKC standard. I am a board member and this was recently made official. The DV will not recognize their breed survey as they don't adhere to the ZTP rules. they allow altered dogs to compete in the breed survey too. They show AKC style. titles are not recognized by AKC.
ADA is their own organization but maintain no registry. Their titles are officially recognized by the DV and the FCI. They hold DV recognized ZTP's in this country and are the only organization who does. They show Euro style and use only Euro judges like Daube, Becht, etc.
You can show an AKC registered dog in any organization. You can show an FCI registered dog too, but only AKC will not credit any wins or titles unless the dog is registered with them.
Hope that helps!
