Run Do Not Walk or U Melt
Everything that could happen in the sale of a registered animal went south Went to the AKC Marketplace Website since they clearly advertise that Founded in 1884 the not-for-profit AKC is the recognized and trusted expert in breed health and training information for all dogs AKC actively advocates for responsible dog ownership and is dedicated to advancing dog sports This is false and misleading since I purchased a pup from a breeder whom they acknowledge had registered my pup parents with them gave three different DOB and then the pup becomes unregistered when the breeder sells me the pup for full price and no papers ON the night of the sale the breeder and her husband came to my home gave my son an envelope while handing me the pup left and shortly upon leaving after opening the envelope found no sellers papers or contract in the sale of this AKC Register Pup I contacted the seller now she comes up with an elaborate lie that she made a mistake and could not register the pup I then contacted AKC Marketplace and to my surprise they did have the pup registered but told me I need owner to give me the papers signed on the back transferring the ownership to me A short time later after this did not happen AKC contacts me back to say the owner will take the pup back and I can get my money back for the pup Pup and my family have bonded Was told upfront by AKC that the dog did indeed have papers Now the AKC and owner is taking their word back and saying a mistake was made by them both Sounds fishy to me Stop doing business with the shaggy fraudulent misleading advertising marketplace unless you want to pay full price for a pup you can adopt for 3 4 the price I was swindle out of a large amount of money with no where to go for help Tried reporting them to the BBB which offered little help Where do you turn when they are all crooks Please run run run from the AKC Marketplace as this company is not an old established non profit business they are a new way to steal money from the consumer and they support the crooked breeders who false advertise on their website Everything bad that could happen in the sale of this pup to me happened and left me mentally scarred for life Just run and keep on running from the AKC Marketplace DO NOT TRUST THEM

What a sad pathetic excuse for a
What a sad pathetic excuse for a website ALL SITES ALL SOFTWARE REQUIRE CONSTANT MONITORING It is more than obvious that AKC does not monitor their site at all I have spent an entire week attempting to register my dog with the online pin number GENERATED BY AKC AND PRINTED ON HIS PAPER FORM but their site says his pin number is invalid Their site also declares my valid email address as invalid I have emailed AKC org no response I have called AKC org no response AKC needs to shut down that pathetic lame website

Doberman mutilation
The AKC s breed standards for the Doberman include pinned ears On AKC website I found we recognize ear cropping and tail docking as prescribed in certain breed standards are acceptable practices integral to defining and preserving breed character etc Mutilating a dogs ears and or tail is illegal in other parts of the world but in America it s not only okay it s widely practised and displayed People who condone practice and display this make me sick I hope none of you people have one of these special breeds or any other animals if you re willing to place your selfish vanity for appearance above not subjecting animals to cruelty Disgrace to mankind You should be utterly ashamed

AKC means nothing concerning Genetics or Health
I recently bought a pup whom I foolishly took home without the paperwork I trusted Top Dogg Giant Schnauzers 2 months later after asking I get the paperwork To my surprise the AKC Litter Certificates says my pups parents AND the grandparents were brother and sister from same litter Upon contacting AKC they said they do not have a policy on inbreeding they leave that up to the discretion of the breeders Really Doesn t that increase the chances of the pups from such a litter being genetic cesspools Buy a pup from a breeder that has a Genetic and Health guarantee
