She is the one that did not follow through on what was agreed upon. If it were me, I would NOT feel comfortable entrusting her with one of my precious babies! I would give her a stud fee, even though she didn't uphold her end of the bargain....I don't know, I guess I would bad if I didn't give her something. I wouldn't give her a huge stud fee, though. Maybe see what the typical fee is in your area and whether or not those are AKC or CKC....I would imagine the CKC fee would be less, but that is only a guess....also, remind her that you are providing a stud fee even though her dogs are not even registered like she had promised.
But, no, she would not get one of my babies.
