I agree with Lexi M--beware of puppy mills! Animals that are sold through newspaper ads, websites, and pet stores often come from puppy mills. The Humane Society has more information about how to buy a puppy responsibly on their Stop Puppy Mills website (1--see below).
However, instead of buying a Papillon, I suggest rescuing one. I did an internet search and found two rescue organizations in the Boston area: Animal Rescue League of Boston (2) and Boston Dog Rescue (3). I also found a rescue group specifically for Papillons (4), though I think they're located in Pennsylvania. Several Papillons were listed on Petfinder, a pet adoption portal (5). I don't know if Winchendon, MA, is near you, but Ahimsa Haven has a Chihuahua/Papillon mix.
The Humane Society estimates that 6-8 million cats and dogs enter shelters each year. About half of them are adopted; the rest are euthanized (6). By rescuing a dog instead of buying one, you are literally saving a life. So please consider rescue, and be sure to spay and neuter. Thanks!

The closest I could find online were New Jersey and New Hampshire.
Please do your research and do not support the cruel conditions of puppy mills. Most of these listings look like legitimate, responsible kennel breeders, but some unfortunately are puppy mills.
A cheap puppy is not necessarily a healthy puppy. Some irresponsible breeders have genetic health defects in their dogs.
Good luck finding a happy & healthy puppy!
