Here's why:
* Ethical Concerns: Buying a dog without papers can contribute to irresponsible breeding practices and the overpopulation of unwanted animals.
* Health Risks: Reputable breeders provide health guarantees and often screen their dogs for genetic health issues. Puppies without papers may be more likely to have health problems in the future.
* Unpredictable Temperament: A dog's temperament is influenced by both genetics and environment. Buying from an unknown source can make it difficult to assess a puppy's potential temperament.
It is always recommended to adopt a dog from a reputable shelter or rescue organization. These organizations provide a safe and loving home for animals in need, and they often have thorough screening processes in place.
If you are considering purchasing a puppy, please do your research and find a responsible breeder who prioritizes the health and well-being of their dogs. You can find reputable breeders through organizations like the American Kennel Club (AKC).
