Verbal agreements do not override written documents, if the only written document is the one Kay has when she purchased Lily from the breeder, than that is the legally binding document for ownership. Sorry for your situation, how heartbreaking!  |
I could be wrong, but it sounds like the friend that gave her the dog did not have the right to do so without the breeders permission per her contract.
To the OP:
As for the breeder wanting to have visitation and meet you, I don't consider that over stepping her bounds at all. It sounds very much like she is a
responsible breeder who cares about the welfare of her pups. I wish there were more like her.
