I find out only a short time ago, not only was she bred several times, But,
her progeny was registered. One of the breedings was to a male owned by the
GSD breeder friend. I contacted the GSD breeder friend by email and asked
how this could be since the puppy was on Limited Registration. She replied
that her friend, the owner of the female, was now deceased as was the female
in question. She also said, "Don't know anything about it," which I had a
problem with since she Had to know the female was placed (given - not sold)
on Limited Registration. She suggested I contact AKC - which I did. I filed
a complaint to find out how, and by whom, the Limited Registration had been
changed.
Now I have received emails from owners of second and third generation
puppies who are understandibly concerned after receiving letters from AKC
not to breed, show, transfer, etc. their dogs.
My question to the GSD community is this, "Would you file a complaint on a
Limited Registration that was obviously changed - altered - forged -
incorrectly recorded by someone?"
I realize correcting this wrong will affect several uninvolved individuals
who down the road purchased puppies, but in my mind honesty and integrity
are at the forefront here and a wrong that was perpetrated by either intent
or error, should be corrected.
I look forward to your comments.
Just to recap, if I understood correctly, the owner of the bitch is dead,
and the bitch herself is dead. I'm not sure how the owner of the stud dog
"had
to know" because, for stud dog records, all the owner would need is the
registration #, which certainly wouldn't indicate HOW the bitch was
registered.....
You've already filed a complaint w/ the AKC, so, asking for input now is
like closing the barn door after the horse got out. Sadly the damage is done
for
the unsuspecting/innocent third parties. If I were in this situation, I
wouldn't have done anything. The party who did the "bad", presumably the dead
bitch owner, obviously, would have been out of my reach.
Just goes to show 'ya, limited registration doesn't always work. The only
way to know for SURE, a bitch can't be bred is to spay her.
