Actually, the breeder do not have to give you the paper unless it is stated in the contract. I know many breeders who have papers on the parents but choose to sell puppy without paper. But honestly is the paper that important? I've always sold my puppies with paper and out of the 8 puppies I ever sold, only 1 registered their dog. I've even tried to help one of the owner registered their dog 2 years after I sold the puppy(they lost the original paper) but they decided they didn't want to after I told them AKC's registration cost.
What gets me is how did you walk out of there with the wrong puppy? Can't believe the breeder didn't realize it until it was pointed out to her! And a week later!! I think if this happened to me I would have been calling you within a couple of hours and very embarrassed. |
