Always ask questions and if you don't get answers that you can verify by other sources, then find another breeder. Just because a breeder is "AKC" doesn't magically make them reputable, their breeding stock and pups healthy, and someone you want to do business with.

Listen to and follow your instincts. Good luck in your search for a pup.
