It all depends on where your kitten comes from

For this still uncommon breed, the purchase most often goes through a specialized breeder. It is important to compare not only the price, but also the transparency regarding health tests, breeding conditions and the quality of the puppies' socialization.

A price too good to be true?

  • An abnormally low price should prompt you to have the puppy’s origin, its identification, and the health monitoring of the parents checked.
  • The absence of eye and joint screenings in breeding dogs is a real warning sign.
  • A poorly socialized puppy or one handed over too early can later lead to behavioral difficulties and additional costs.
