Bless your heart....I am sorry you are getting caught up in something like this. This is something that seems to me to be best pursued through small claims court. Is your pup AKC registered? Do you have a 3 generation pedigree on her? I would think you need that 3 generation pedigree.....if the breeder has lied on those papers, and the parents are NOT who she claims them to be, and she has lied on her registration papers, AKC is not going to be happy about that. If your DNA test comes back showing Minnie is not purebred Yorkie, your next step would be to contact the breeder and tell her you have DNA'd your dog and she is NOT what the breeder claimed. Tell her you are contacting the AKC for direction forward. AKC will get involved and they will DNA the parents listed on thatpedigree to determine if those are actually the parents.....if the breeder is found to be falsifying her records, she will be fined and her AKC registration will be suspended. Then, when you have ALL this done, you take her to small claims court and get the cost of your dog back....you may only get the difference in price between a purebred and a mix, but you will get something back. You just want to be careful....you may have to choose between a refund and giving your Minnie back, or the difference between a purebred and a mix. At least you will get retribution against the breeder that has lied and committed fraud. |
