All are home raised and carefully checked by vets before the trip. Then checked again by our Dept. of Agriculture and vets when they enter the
US. Yes, they are given to pet stores for sale. Never knew this until I purchased Buddy. It was a private pet store, not like the mall. A friend told
me it's location. Store was spotless. He registration reads like the AKC I assume. Shows his parents, grandparents and great grandparents. He had
an Hungarian name (Cerdi Odon) and certificate said EKCH. It is recognized by England but not AKC. I found the website several weeks later and it said
the same thing the breeder/store owner told me. I really wanted a rescue so I could get a homeless dog a home and I guess I did in a way. He came a long way and I am glad I was the one who found him. I paid 1,400.00 for him
and he is in perfect health. He is now 2yrs. old.
