No I don´t think that is correct, it should be the same for all people from abroad. I just think that for a Slowakian person with a avarage salary the 200-300€ they pay for a dog are even more than the 600-800€ Westerneuropeans pay for it. If you look at the prices for good dog food and so on the 300€ are to low but have to be so low because nobody could afford a wolfdog if they would be higher. But for Germans 800€ is a normal to low price for a purebred dog, so I think if they get a good puppy from a good breeder they should pay a normal price for it.
To rise the prices from the Clubs to stop puppytrading was absolutly the right decision.
