He was 12 weeks old (thank goodness for that) but already weighs 4 pounds and his price was reduced because of his age. She told her for more $$$ she would send in her AKC papers and he'd be duel registered
| This type of behavior is exactly what unscrupulous breeders do! If they are able to file via AKC it does NOT cost more money. It is a nominal fee, and I've seen many ask for 100's more, and most people just say oh that's ok forget it then.. Price reduced due to his age! He's 12 WEEKS! :thumbdown
If your pups are AKC registered, don't bother with any other registry. They were created by bad breeders into tricking unknowing buyers into believing their dogs have papers, when in reality the "papers" of those registries ACA, CKC (continental, not Canadian) APRI, etc aren't worth the paper it's printed on.
Now if a dog was dual registered AKC and CanadianKC I still don't know what advantage that it would have. |
