Thanks for your help! I e-mailed AKC, so I'm just waiting to see what they say. I did not get papers with my female. I bought her from an older woman who became too ill to care for her properly. Being that she was a puppy, it was too much work for her. She said that she had papers for her and she was to send them to me (her daughter had them). The only things she sent were shot records. When I tried to contact the lady again, the phone would just ring and ring without even a voicemail. I tried going back to her apartment a couple of times and no answer. I fear the worst for her (she did seem VERY ill). All I know is Maddie's exact birthdate. No names for parents or what name she may have been registered under if she was at all. Oh well
The lady could have also been lying...you never know. She sold Maddie to me for only $1000 (which is very inexpensive for LA). She said she just wanted to get something back for what she paid, which she claimed to pay $1600.
