If he has AKC papers you at least know he came from a breeder, not a Back Yard Breeder who mated their dog with their neighbors dog and there would be no AKC papers. Only 2 shots and 2 y/o is a issue for me. You could be adopting a boy with health issues, are you financially prepared to possibly spend what could be big bucks if this boy is not healthy and you find this out on his first vet would should be as soon as you pick him up. This is not like buying a used car,have the mechanic check it out, car not in good condition, you can say NO to the deal. Once you pay your $140. that dog is yours. Me, I am the type if I fall in love with a car, if it has no engine, I will buy it and have mechanic put an engine in, same with a dog, if I fall in love with it I get it, if the dog has health issues I do all to get him healthy, however, I have an excellent vet and the finances to cover vet bills, do you? If you can say yes to finances and have the best vet, I say, look at the dog, then follow your heart. He's a little cutie and will go fast at $140. Good luck in you decision.


AKC papers can be acquired by anyone with AKC registered dogs with full registration rights on both of the parents, they honestly mean nothing as to where the puppies come from and have zero value to anyone not planning to breed or maybe show. Never think that the AKC label means quality, also, its possible for someone to have two puppies and declare that they have four or to have puppies die in the litter and they can totally pass those extra/unused papers off with a completely unrelated pup that could possibly be mixed....
