First of all you must have him evaluated by an judge/or reputable breeder/exhibitor.
2nd he must have all the required tests performed to ensure that he is free from any congetial diseases ($500.00)
However, if you do not have his background even having the testing performed, you are not aware what is in his blood line. Hence AKC papers are not a guarantee for well bred pure bred dogs.
Also, taking into mind most owner's of quality females have their own studs.....
