I agree that it's not right. If I want a dog to be limited, then it should be limited regardless of anything else. I'm not necessarily defending AKC, I'm just looking at it from their point of view. They are a registry. If the dogs are AKC, then they are.... regardless of anything else.

I'm not sure how we can get them to stop doing this. As a breeder, you have to be an advocate for your puppies. That's why I spay and neuter those going to pet homes before they leave. If it means holding on to them for longer, then so be it.
