so call it a misunderstanding on most parts and let it go, OK?
Sherry has posted to the list and that's that.

And rather than let Paulette take all the blame here...I am the one who took
the time to look up the bitch in AKC records.........and if that can be
called "stirring the pot," then call it that....
I don't think we all have to adhere to the same standards...I have never
placed a dog I've bred and kept except in a dire emergency...and I do mean
dire...
I think the problem here was because the dog appeared to be a
rescue........not an owner looking for a good home.......
so call it a misunderstanding on most parts and let it go, OK?
