Either the breeder has supplied papers, or not. If not, I'd be suspicious. Without papers, if you've paid purebred price, ask for a fair proportion of your money back, though don't part with the dog because the breeder doesn't sound very ethical and I expect you're already in love with the puppy. I'd also be very suspicious about any breeder who sells a dog before eight weeks. You can report the breeder to your local Labrador Society if you have concerns, and I'd have serious concerns in your case. If you and your labrador are getting on well and you haven't paid purebred price for it, enjoy your dog. Unless your intention was to show it, of course, but taking on a six-week-old doesn't sound as though you want to do that. Have a long and good relationship with your labrador. Rely on good advice about its upbringing; don't hit it, keep it feeling secure and safe, and you'll have a friend for life.

How do you know the dog was labrador?
You can tell if your dog is a Lab quite easily because of similar features. Compare a dog to a photo of a Labrador and I bet you could easily tell if it was, although this is not always the case with mixed breeds. A mutt may not have many Labrador features and take more to the other breed/s in their lineage. The only way to make totally sure a mixed breed is a Lab is to take them to the vet and have them tested. Their DNA will be examined and you'll know if your mutt really does have a Labrador somewhere in their bloodline.
Do labrador retriever mix dogs shed?
It depends on what they are mixed with! Labs themselves shed a lot! (I know from personal experience), but depending on what they are mixed with they might not shed as much or at all. You would have to research the traits of the other breed it is mixed with!

Yes there is such a thing as big and small Labrador Retrievers. Want to know why? Because there are a lot of folks who do not know what a 'Breed Standard' is. There are also folks who would breed their Labrador Retriever to another Labrador Retriever when they also do not know what a breed standard is, nor do they realize that they may be bringing into this world a smaller, skinner type of Lab or a larger, bigger type of Lab.
