I remember when you got Baby. It was more of a "rescue her from a horrible situation" type of deal". The owner wasn't taking very good care of her, right? I didn't think you paid a lot for her(was it $500?) I don't remember all the details, just that you had wanted to give her a good home. I honestly(and don't want to be harsh sounding) don't think the original owner owes you the papers and shouldn't expect to give them to you so you can make money off of the dog. You're a really good person, I know this. It just rubs me the wrong way how you got Baby, then a male, then they 'accidentally' tied...twice. Now your complaining about trying to get AKC papers and that you know people will pay more for AKC dogs.
If it was any other poster, I'd be appalled.., but I know for a fact, that you are a good person and love yorkies and truly wanted good homes for both Baby and your male. If you paid and were promised the papers, yes you should get them. If I was the previous owner, I wouldn't be happy that you had her bred and now want the papers to sell a litter.
I do know there are other registries you can go with, not as good as AKC but to some people, like me, it doesn't matter that much. |
