I am not trying to start a bashing war so I will leave the buyer's name off this. But I am curious how other breeder's would handle this situation.
The buyer buy's a pup as pet and companion only and received AKC limited reg. I find out a year later this buyer changed the limited reg to full by shining a  light threw it and got it full reg. After I notify AKC and AKC investigated the matter ,they issued the registration back to limited.
The buyer then registered this dog UKC and has plans to breed her!!!
How would others handle this.
I appreciate any input.

i have a breeder friend that cuts the box right out so there is no number there, i think from now on i will do the same. its a great idea.

I cut the box out of the full registration box and out of the online registration box.  That way they have to mail the form in and can't change the dog's name or add a co-owner who hasn't signed my contract.  BTW, I cross out where you can put a co-owner unless both parties were there to sign the contract.  I suppose one could always reg. UKC or breed without papers and your only option would be to take them to court if your contract is worded in such a way that you would have a case.  Sad world that a breeder has to go to these lengths to ensure an agreement is upheld.

 I sell you a dog I don't give a fuck anymore. You pay money to OWN a car, people that sold you the car do not tell you what to do with it. 

Somehow, people think that limited registration means something. If you do not want the dog bred, maybe you should be culling it, and not giving people the opportunity to laugh in your face like this. 

Responsible dog breeding is not about little boxes on paper. People produce dogs, SELL the dogs, and then want to cry when the dog, being not worth breeding, gets bred. IT IS NOT YOUR DOG ANYMORE ! ! ! ! Your own damn fault.

I register the litter and then I register each puppy in my name and new owners don't get papers until I get prof that the dog has been spayed or neutered.  It is a lot of extra steps and cost more money up front but it works for me.

Most of the time they never even send the papers in and register the dog in their names you can check on the AKC website and see what dogs are still registered in your name.

If you are buying a puppy, technically you won't know if it is bred worthy until 2 years of age.  After hips and elbows are done.  So speaking from a buyers point of view, I would not buy a puppy with limited registration.  I kinda have to agree with Jeff, if I buy it what gives you the right to decide what I do with it.  I get that breeders want to protect there lines and name, but I bought it shouldn't I have the right to decide whether or not to bred?  How would you know at 8 weeks old if it is just a pet worthy puppy or a bred worthy puppy?

 BUT if the puppy was bought on a limited registration as a pet  and knew that it was not to be bred then buyer should of not changed the papers.

So as a breeder are you saying you know 100% if a puppy at 8 weeks old is just a pet worthy or bred worthy dog?
They own the dog do they not have the right to change their mind.  If the dogs hip, elbows and temperment are great and the dog turned out bred worthy, do they not have the right to change their mind to bred the dog.  They bought, they own it, it should be their decision.

I buy my dogs on full registration and have no intention of breeding.  I also register full with the UKC because I participate in many of their events (as well as WDA, USA, AKC...).

Many breeders sell the puppy on limited and gladly change to full once the dog as a title and hip/elbow certification.

Unfortunately you can get FULL UKC registration with LIMITED AKC registration, but the UKC registration is useless for anything but UKC events

I find it interesting that breeders should give full registration to puppies going out of our kennels but we should also be prepared to take them all back even though they are "NOT YOUR DOG ANYMORE".   Which way do you want it?  Breeders to remain responsible for what they create or not?  Can't have it both ways in my opinion.
