Thanks very much, see my breeder told me she was "CKC" not verifying whether that was Canadian or Continental. I definitely will ask- I kinda just assumed it was Candian but it might not be! Honestly it doesn't matter in the long run, she didn't rip me off or anything and I love my Cookie. Im not planning on showing/breeding her so it really doesn't matter.. Just wanted to know out of curiosity
