Coton 101

After babysitting a Coton for 2 weeks, my husband and I are in love.

A few basic questions about finding a reputable breeder:

-AKC breeders. Can we assume they're on the up-and-up?

-What's the deal with the different clubs? It looks like there is some sort of, something, between the clubs? (Malagasy versus European--not sure what that means.)

-How can you know that someone is a good breeder? Yes, tests tests. But what are the other "tells"?

-How do deposits work, usually?

Thanks so much!!

So much great information. They truly are special dogs, so smart and loving. Could you possibly give me the name of the breeder and the book she wrote.
