It means the dog cannot be entered in conformation events. Any offspring of the dog are ineligible for AKC registration.
Basically, a limited AKC dog is meant to be spayed or neutered and kept as a pet, not a breeding dog.
Assuming that you are intending to apply for a limited registration for your dog, the organisation to address is the AKC (American Kennel Club). They carry out the limited registration and you can find the details on their web site.
No. By definition, limited registration means that the dog is registered but no litters produced by that dog are eligible for registration. The only way to remove limited status is by asking the original breeder of the dog. For more information about limited registration status, go here: http://www.akc.org/reg/limitedreg.cfm
If the parents were sold on limited registration, they should never have been bred and their puppies will be unable to be registered at all
You can obtain a dual registration from CKC for your AKC registered Dogs. AKC does not recognize CKC (Continental Kennel Club). You can print out your applications at www.ckcusa.com
I'm paying $850 for mine, but that only includes a limited AKC registration (but I don't really care about that as I won't be showing him or anything). I've seen them as expensive as $1500.
No they are not. A "Pedigree" is a record of the lineage behind the dog, such as parents names, AKC numbers, OFA numbers, then grandparents, then great grand parents, etc. It depends on if you get a 3 or 5 generation pedigree. A breeder normally gives you a pedigree of your pup's background upon purchase or you can order a 3 or 5 generation Pedigree on your dog from the AKC. AKC records are the individual record of each purebred dog and has to be registered with the AKC. You can only get this if the parents were both registered with the American Kennel Club, AKC and the litter registration of their litter is registered with the AKC. The AKC will then issue out individual AKC papers for each pup in the litter. Hope that helps to explain the difference.

I'm not really familiar with AKC, as I live in the UK. However, registration is only normally necessary for breeders, when they are breeding pups to sell. Both parents have to be registered, for the pups to qualify for AKC registration, to prove bloodlines etc.In UK you can still have a pedigree without KC registration, but most are registered from reputable breeders.See related link for more information on American Kennel Club.
The only way to get this is to have registration papers from a reputable registration organization, such as one that operates within the umbrella of the AKC.
No. The American Foxhound is one of the least popular AKC breeds (176/177) according to the AKC's Dog Registration Statistics webpage.(As in 2013)
