A show puppy. I really doubt you would get one from a show breeder. They breed for there next Showdog. They won't sell it unless they know you and may want some breeding rights. If that were the case the op wouldn't be asking. But someone telling you its a "Show" puppy and they are going to charge you $2k I would be skeptical.
That being said in my area from the reputable breeders I know. With papers or without they are the same price. They register there breeding. Some ppl don't and want to pump out puppys. $1500 would be the average. My three dogs have. Different lines. But 2 come from Oliver the Legend. WC 3 steps up. One from WC Felix from 2011 BOB Westminster. Point is Champions line all through. Still pet quality. For $2+ there should have Champion sire and dam and all down the lines. I've meet breeders whos pups had Ch lines 4-5 generation back. But the breeding went haywire. Don't look good . Don't seem healthy and wanted big $$ Buyer beware. I would rescue before I support bad breeding |
