Business ProfileforThe American Kennel Club, Inc.

Yes I purchased an Akita Puppy advertised on ************************************************************************************** on Thursday, February 29, 2024 from *************************** ************ and ************ *************************** for $900.00+20.00Transfer. I wanted to pick the ****** but she insisted that she bring it to my home. In purchasing the pup, it included the Seller providing me the AKC Registration Certificate Transfer Papers, which on the site where the pup was advertised, states, "AKC Marketplace is the only website that exclusively lists puppies from AKC-Registered litters, so you can choose a breeder with confidence." I believed this, and trusted that the Breeder was ligit. They came to my home, took the money, gave my son a brown envelope and said all the papers were in it. However, shortly after they left, we looked inside the envelope and realized that the transfer papers were not inside. We immediately contacted the Seller, and she came back with an illusive lie that the father was not AKC, so she could not register them. Then the story changed, and she said a friend of the husband abandoned the pup's father, and did not give her the papers. She also did not give me an agreed Bill of Sale, as she stated was going to take place when I purchased the puppy. I contacted the AKC and they states,"the parents are both registered, and so is the puppy alongside the other litter in his group. I contacted her back and as her to mail me the papers and sign her portion on the back so that I can register the puppy I paid for in my name, but she will not cooperate. My Resolution:Please help me to get the papers for my sweet little puppy, and complete the sale ***************************, and ****** failed to comply with their own terms. I also, had to write out my own contract, stating that I paid cash for the pup, and the delivery of the pup, sold to me by ******, with the date, and *************************** signed it upon giving me the pup, and receiving her full payment for the dog.
