Actually back in the day there were a lot of quality breeders that would inaccurately paper their dogs. So that no one else would know the true recipe of there breeding program.
It all basically boils down to whats more important, the dog or the damn papers? Personally for me, if the dog is good and comes from a reputable breeder, thats more important that a piece of paper.
