Personally for me, if the >dog is good and comes from a reputable breeder, thats >more important that a piece of paper. You have a point there. There are 2 sides to the pancake and without either you really don't have anything. Thats why it's better to start your own line of DOGS based on true breeding history and keep it that way. No one can duplicate any particular DOG unless they have those exact DOGS at their disposal for breeding. Piece of paper is only evidence of what you know to be true regarding the breeding of your DOG...sometimes for some folks that document is important. Myself, if I have a good DOG, then the piece of paper now becomes important and the reputable breeder will gladly provide that........
