Does the puppy come with AKC or (if not in the US) other breed club registration papers?
All purebred Cardigan Welsh Corgis should be sold with proper registration. In the USA, two primary breed registries are the American Kennel Club (AKC) and the United Kennel Club (UKC). If you are in another country, there may be other all breed registries that accept cardis. A recent change in AKC’s stud and litter registration rules has caused some puppy millers to try starting their own registries, so don’t be afraid to avoid puppies that do not seem to be properly registered, even if you just want a pet. Be suspicious of any breeder not offering proper registration papers and never buy puppies from petstores. Money is the biggest concern to petstores who more often than not get their puppies from puppy mills. Puppy mill practices often include poor animal husbandry with little consideration of the dog’s well being and puppies are frequently removed from their mothers at as early an age as three weeks in order to ship them to stores while they are at their best ‘selling’ age.
