If it's akc, they will give you the papers to send in, I've never sent papers in but one time, and that's when I bought a pomeranian, I sent the money in for her papers, but, my g-friend whos had poms all her life, saw my puppy and said, what kind of dog is that? I told her a pom and she laughed and laughed(kind of hurt my feelings), so, I sent pictures to AKC, and they supposedly lost the papers..so, papers to me don't mean a hill of beans, unless you're going to show or use them for breeding..if not, i wouldn't myself spend the $25 or whatever it cost now for their papers..also, you want to get him netuered between 5-6 mos(if you're not using him for one of the above mentioned) to keep from getting certain cancers, and to also keep him from marking..it makes a much better dog once they've been neutered..and yes, get him checked with in the time given by the breeder(usually 3 days I think)..
