Purchase price
It all depends on where your puppy comes from
For a rare breed, it is essential to prioritize a serious breeding program, transparent about health, socialization and the origin of the breeding dogs. A lower price is not always synonymous with a good deal.

- The maintenance budget over several years often exceeds the purchase price.
