Onslow came with a folder of what to feed him, his parent's health certificates, his family tree, vacination card, microchip, he didn't come with his registration as from memory it wasn't back in time but posted very shortly after. His breeder was kind enough to give me some of his kibble as well.

Tilly came with vacination card, microchip details, registration, parent's health certificates and a booklet on golden retreivers .

With my puppies, whether limit or main, they come with micro chip papers, vaccination card, puppy booklet which includes training tips, info on the breed for those who have not had Belgian Shepherds before. My puppies also come with a Pro Plan pack, so that they go to their new homes with some of the food they where raised on.

Good luck with getting your puppy:)

As others have indicated it differs from breeder to breeder.

With Louie who I bought as a puppy I received:

- His papers

- Vet Records

- Bag of toys, grooming products and some puppy food.

With my female who I bought as an adult I received her papers, vet records, the food she was currently eating and a crate.

ETA: Both came with microchip papers as well

The last 2 dogs we have brought - 1 came with a printout giving diet and training suggestion, a copy of the parents papers and their test results and the pup. We collected him directly from his breeder. He had a collar on. His papers turned up in the mail a week or two later.

The second one came in a crate after his plane ride ... rather smelly and a dehydrated (thankfully not too badly). He was microchipped but it wasn't actually registered anywhere - I had to chase the breeder for his microchipping details but ended up confirming the number with our vet. I had to chase the breeder to find out what he was being fed and his vaccination details. His papers turned up a month or two later after chasing and chasing the breeder.

Mine came with pedigrees, parents health tests, vaccination records, hearing and eye test results, microchip papers. A detailed list of diet, general care and how to socialise the puppy. And the tail-less one came with a letter from a vet attesting to the fact that she was born without a tail and that she was not docked. Handy, with todays inflammatory legislation.

Mine leave home with their own folder with

information on the breed

breed standard

basic training information

toilet training information

information on vaccinations

diet and general care information - what to feed, when to reduce meals, worming, when next vac is due, grooming, washing, blah blah (3 pages)

pedigree

information on the breed from the canine control, and information on the canine control (supplied by them)

photos of parents (sometimes)

vaccination certificate

microchip details

health guarantee

copy of the rehoming guarantee, signed by the buyer

book on the breed (when I can find one!)

6 weeks free insurance

soft toy which the whole litter has played with

enough food for a few days

No registration papers. I register the entire litter at once, receive the registration certificates from the CC and post them to the new owners when the whole litter has been sold. But I do tell the new owners how long it is likely to take, and in the paperwork they take, it says the pup will be registered, and gives the registered names of the parents and dob, of course. If the registration takes longer than I said, I contact them to tell them why.

People hate buying pups from me, it takes forever, and the flamin paperwork weighs more than the pup!!

Edited to add - as you can see, everyone does it differently, so it is probably best to ask the breeder before you buy, if it is important to you.

My last pup came with receipt, Registration papers signed for transfer, chip paperwork signed for transfer, vaccination record and instruction on when due again and a note on heartworm, A few days of the food she was used to and an instruction puppy and feeding manual. Also an open offer to contact by phone or e-mail at any time

To add, we had done all the health check of parents and previous siblings/relatives before and we were very familiar with the breed
