Congradulations on your new addition and I am very happy he has brought some happiness back into your life!! I dont have a show dog nor do I have papers, I will tell you when I got my dog I was so depressed and sick and she brought me so much happiness, although I will say if ((( WHEN))) I get another puppy I will look for a very good breeder probally one from YT, because sometimes ( perhaps not in your case) you do get what you pay for, I worry every day because I dont know anything about my puppies parents, she came from a not so good breeder, I am blessed she is healthy but my preference would be to know she came from a trusted breeder who has done blood tests , I also would have LOVED the benefit of being able to call the breeder when little things went wrong.. But again I am very very happy for you that you have brought back a little sunshine in your life and a smile to your face.. Congrats!!
