Get a copy of the regisration application for your records.
Get all of the breeder's contact information: address, email, phone, full name.
Get a receipt for any money that you have paid.
If it is a contract sale (payments on time) get a written contract. Be sure you understand the terms of the contract. If the animals are being sold as a package, not individual animals, with one price for all be sure that is stated in the contract.
Keep all this paperwork in a safe place. You never know when you will need it.
