My first male was $1800 and he did not come with AKC paperwork, I did see the parents paperwork but not his and I am extremely happy with him! He was worth every penny. My second male was $3500 before the nanny delivered him and he had limited AKC papers meaning he is registered but cant produce litters.
Papers don't really "mean" anything unless you are planning to breed. If she can show you the parents AKC that's more than enough and $800 is a very reasonable price. These dogs are expensive and worth every penny, I would of denied her for being RUDE but not for the paperwork. Hope I made sense.

Hi darling thanks for your response if she want being so rude I'm sure my friends mom would've at least went to see the puppy and breeder. Im aware that because the pup doesn't have paperwork didn't mean the pup or breeder is bad. I also understand these pups cost THOUSANDS of dollars. Growing up my mom and grandma had yorkies. $800 or even $1100 for a puppy of really any breed is pretty cheap but regardless of price I'm sure she just wants a healthy pup that will live long like jada did and jewels will. Thanks again
