The reason they gave for registering the litter CKC and not AKC was that the breeder did not want the buyers to have access to that blood line. I am told that if the parents are AKC traceable, then you can register the pup AKC anyways?? Anyways the pup comes with a one year guarantee against any congenital defects, and I have 48 hours to take the pup to my vet to check for any other problems. Oh, and by the way the ears are not up, which means taping and hoping for the best, I guess. The price of the pup is $450.00 but I have some reservations. I just want to know are they telling me the truth about the eligability of the registration with AKC? And also, the breeder will not give a pedigree chart, but has the CKC papers. Thanks for any imput.

Hmmmm well lets see, first are you planning on Breeding her? That's a big question. Papers are not really important unless you are breeding. You might have trouble with getting AKC papers, but I'm not really sure. Why would she not give you a pedigree chart. If you have the parents AKC numbers you can always order one. I would make sure she is healthy by taking her to your vet.
Make sure you get the guarantee form before you leave if you get her.
Her ears might still go up, but there are many super cute pups with down ears. It wasn't Princess's ears that made me pick her, it was the love in her eyes.
If you're looking for a yorkie just to spoil and get lots of love from, I'd go check her out. But if you're looking to Breed, I'd find out from some of our Breeders here about the paper work. Wish I could be more help.
Best of luck to you.
