Michiko,
Thank you for sharing your experience. You do deserve to have your AKC papers, and I totally understand and agree with how important they are to you. I think it is very unprofessional for a breeder to not hold up her end of the contract (shame on her!). It sounds like you have been very patient and kind under the circumstances, and I don't know if I would have been so great about it
. I agree with what has been said before; I would take legal action.
Good luck
