It all depends on where your puppy comes from
A serious breeder must present identification and registration documents, the parents' health results, the breeding conditions and the puppy's health monitoring. Adoption through a specialized association is another possibility, with dogs whose temperament and needs must be assessed carefully.

What about once they're home?
A price that seems too good to be true?
- Avoid any seller who refuses to show the mother, the breeding conditions, or the health documents.
- Check the identification, the stated registration, the veterinary certificate, and the parents' screening results.
- An abnormally low price may conceal insufficient socialization, incomplete care, or an untraceable origin.
- Anticipate the long-term cost of food, care, and equipment suited to a dog that can reach 100 kg.
