hi getting a puppy on saturday, i feel so scared that i will let my new puppy down, i have emailed the breeder a few times and she seems very nice, we are going to visit on saturday morning, she says if we pass her test and the puppy passes ours we can take him home.
not being a dog breeder myself i have tried to read up as much as i can on the subject and hope i can allay any fears the breeder may have.
as i am looking for the dog to be a family pet and not to breed from or put in shows, should i ask a different set of questions, does it matter if it comes without kc papers, we have our heart set on this puppy. i will be so gutted if we can,t take it home as it has taken me 5 months to find this one.
please help ease my fears

this has been discussed so many times------put it in search, --its the only way you have of knowing your pup really is who theyre saying he is, -have you been told they arent kc reg, ???? what breed is it, it surely cant be hard to find a well bred registered one, -theres many reasons why some dont register, apart from anything else if the parents arent registered they cant of had the health tests done that the breed requires, -id not advise you to buy non kc reg dogs, but thats just my veiw, others may say different, but if you spend a bit time on the site you'll see how many unhealthy or bad temperaments have come from non kc reg dogs,
