well unless ur really trust the breeder or petshop ur buying from i would strongly recomend u dont do it over the internet
it could be a scam and u could extension up with a dog with health or practice problems
i wouldnt recomend it..
I wouldn't buy online unless you can organise to actually see the animal you want to buy. And better yet see the parents. Shipping animals is very stressful to them so I don't presume buying from inter-state is a good idea at all try to stay local.
Answers:    Get the Breeder's Name and address. You can then go to the AKC website and see if they're a registered breeder.

If the puppy is coming from Oklahoma or Missouri, it's possibly coming from a puppy mill, so be cautious.
NO! And puppy mills are ridiculous too.

All in adjectives... you don't really NEED the AKC registration or a purebred unless you're planning on showing them.

If you're not going to show them then those things really aren't necessary.
once i bought ducklings online but i probly wouldnt recomend buying a puppy online it could be tainted, have diseases or come from a puppy mill. just put and add within the paper or something im sure there's a local breeder that lives somewhere close by to you
