I purchased my darling Gabby, on Craigslist this past labor day. I was her 4th owner, and only paid a rehoming fee of $150. I was very blessed I was able to find another "CKC" yorkie playmate for my Harley, whom also is CKC registered. I received the registration papers for him at time of purchase, which is stated in the CKC guidelines and regulations. The people I got Gabby from gave me all her paperwork and vet records from the previous owners; even a "condition of sale" agreement from the first buyer. Long story short, the breeder did not do what she was supposed to do by CKC rules. She made up contract and sold dog for $750 w/o papers and after buyer spayed gabby she wanted receipt for proof and then would send papers. The owner got rid of gabby, and didnt spayed her. I contacted the breeder and she wants $300 from me and then she will send me the original application for registration for Gabby. I am her 4th owner and I am not the original buyer. I love gabby and am very blessed to have her.
Now Gabby might be pregnant, (not planned) and I know people who would love to purchase their puppies, but do not have Gabby's papers, and people want the papers.
Has anyone else run into anything like this or have advice for me on what to do? I did contact CKC and they are sending me complaint papers. AND registering litter of puppies is FREEE.
