| I've been had... Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: Michigan Posts: 36 I've been had -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I purchased a puppy in October, owner said she would send for the papers, as of yet NO papers, now she won't answer or return calls. This was an $800 AKC dog with owner having both parents who were AKC. I do have receipt where owner is supposed to supply papers for me to register the dog. Where do I start with a complaint to AKC as i do not have litter number etc? I love the puppy and do not wish to return her for a refund, but i do want my AKC registration. Any advice? Thanks, __________________ Joan, Bailey, & Brandy

| If possible I'd go back to the breeders house to get my papers or atleast the litter registration so you can get hold of the AKC.

| My Mom had that happen to her...Papers were promised to her. She was told to come 3 days later to pick them up and they would be ready for her at that time. 3 days later Dad picked up the packet and took them home. Mom opened them up to find papers. Papers on how to take care of your new Yorkie! Not akc as promised. Well by 3 days mom was already attached to her new baby! so she just gave up. So many nasty people out there ready to scam you! Hate it. I wish you the best of luck! |

| contact akc to see if she registered them. they should have her name on file as a breeder. if she is not listed, then these are not akc registered puppies or she did not want to spend the money to register them. keep at her. send a letter, go to her home, and do not give up. these people cannot continue to do this to innocent people. call call call her and don't stop. i am so very sorry this has happened to you. i have ALWAYS recieved my papers with the puppy. i never had to wait for the papers.

| If your baby is AKC he should have papers already there. I would try calling Akc and getting information on this breeder and her credibilty. |

| I am calling AKC tomorrow. Something is very odd here. The puppy is beautiful and in excellent health. I really would like to enter her in a few local dog shows. Thanks for the advice

| Wishing you lots of luck tomorrow with AKC. It is so sad people have to do this to others. People go out and spend their hard earned money on a sweet pup, become attached to him/her and never receive what has been promised to them and what they rightfully paid for. And then of course people don't want to give there pup back, because these little kid are the best! lol! I hope to hear good news in the near future from you. Best of luck |

| OK I called AKC she is on file as a breeder, this litter was not registered and as of today nothing is on file, so AKC recomends I can file a complaint and take her to small claims court. So I left ond final message giving her time to respond. I've already emailed a judge in town i am related to Judge and Sheriff. So going to find out what I can do legally. Maybe fraud with misrepretation. I am keeping this puppy. I will not give her up. She has stolen my heart and is buddies with my other yorkie now. However, bad breeders must be stopped from scamming innocent people. Thanks for all the advice

| Honestly, what good are those papers???? Unless you are showing the dog, or plan to breed, I dont see how those papers are usefull. I still havent registered Rocky, couldnt care less about it. AKC is a joke anyway, it is so easy to get the registration one way or another. As long as the pup is is healthy and happy and you love him nothing else should matter, thats what I think at least. As for being had, $800 is a fair price for a good Yorkie. I paid 1000 and would pay 1000 even if Rocky didnt have papers. I just knew he was mine |

My Tiny Treasures Donating Member | I've never bought a pup either without papers in hand, nor would I ever release a pup without giving the new owners their papers. I'm sorry this happened to you!!! Can you say who the breeder is and where she's located? Does she have a website? I hope you get your papers!!! Good luck!!! |
