Breeding quality is very expensive, but appropriately priced too. A pet puppy with many faults can go for as little as R4 000 ($500), but a top quality brood dam can cost you in the area of R25 000 ($3 000) - R40 000 ($5 000).
Our bloodline can be traced back to Von Friedheck and there are about 25 dogs in our line in the country at the moment. That's why we need to charge what we do. We are very afraid of our dogs ending up in the wrong hands.

They're both BEAUTIFUL!
I love your "homegrown" female. She's stunning. What breed association are you affiliated with in South Africa? So great to see the breed growing, and very beautifully if I must say
.
It's unfortunate that there is so much dispute in the U.S.
