This is what i would do..... Record your conversation!!! Make sure you get her to say she was going to give you the female puppy! Then after you have evidence that she is backing out of the deal confront her tell her you have recorded this conversation make it clear to her if she does not part with the puppy you will take her to court and not only sue for tje puppy but mental cruelness as well. Unless this lady is a lawyer this will scare the crap out of her! Also when you talk to her on the phone when recording make sure you give her options like my concern is for the puppy i would like her to stay with the mom for 12 weeks i would love to talk to the vet you are taking her to. things like that to show you are in good will! Also have you signed the AKC papers yet? If not DO NOT!! Make it clear to her that the buyers have wised up to the non papered puppies and she will barley get a freaction of the price she is asking for with out the papers. If the dog was sick or something i could understand but i agree with everyone else she either wants this female to breed with or to sell at a higher price. if all else fails tell her that the stud fee will be $1200.00 because that is what you would sell the male for. Also get some of your co worker that heard her say she would give you the female together smooze them a little and cry a big story about her this will in turn make it hard for her to get releif. Also go to her house and talk in person with her tell her i want proof in writting from the vet and also the vets phone #. Tell her if you want me to give up on this you will need to provide me will proof. Good luck and keep us updadted. |
