AKC's view on selling animals without papers can be found under Procedures for Registration Matters:
D. Dog Sold Without AKC Registration Papers If a dog is delivered or sold with the understanding that AKC papers will not be furnished, the donor or seller must obtain from the recipient or buyer a signed statement agreeing to this condition, and such disposition of a dog without papers must be indicated in the seller's records. Note: The AKC suggests that the donor or seller withhold identifying information (sire and dam's AKC registered names and numbers, litter registration numbers, etc.) and only provide information concerning the dog' s date of birth, shots administered, shots needed and any other information the recipient or buyer would require in order to provide properly for the dog's welfare. We do not countenance understandings or agreements that put a price on "papers." If a person acquiresa dog without papers, with the explicit understanding that papers will be furnished for payment of an additional amount of money, the buyer has, in effect, forfeited any rights to papers. If at some later date he decides he wants papers, the AKC can only advise him to go back to the seller to resolve the matter. ========================================================= "Magic Commands": to stop receiving mail for awhile, click here and send the email: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?body=SET%20CKCS-L%20NOMAIL to start it up gain click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?body=SET%20CKCS-L%20MAIL E-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] for assistance.
