If you still have the contract, I would contact the AKC and report the discrepancy between the two, sending copies to them. I am not sure if there is much that can be done, but I would start there. If your vet is willing to say the pup was sick at the time of purchase, you might be able to go to small claims court to get your vet bills covered, depending on the laws in your state.
I would also follow the other advice you were given about reporting him to the BBB or fulling out business reviews online about this breeder. We also have a breeder review section here at YT if you would like to share your exp w others in hopes that they do not fall prey to this breeder.
As far as the size, that is a hard thing to get a guarantee. |
