I know of a couple of breeders that have had this happen to them. I think one of the breeders was able to figure out who the correct sire was. In the other case they were never able to figure it out.
As for how much to give her back, that is up to you. Perhaps offer her half her money back. I think the lesson learned here is that it is best to not give breeding rights to people when you sell a pup. I always sell mine with limited AKC registration.
