Shoshone, you said you paid the outstanding money owed for this dog to the owner in the UK, I would understand by that you mean Tessa, as this money hasnt been forwarded to the breeder, then Tessa is not the legal owner as in this country you only own something when it has been paid for in full, so that being the case Tessa has fraudulently taken money from you, so as a so called responsible breeder yourself you should return the dog to the breeder (at the breeders cost) and take legal action against Tessa for fraud, this i believe is how you would expect someone to behave if the tables were turned.
