I normally tell people who contact us because they are interested in getting a wolfdog to take their time and get to know as many dogs as possible. For that it is the best to go to summercamps and special dog shows of this breed. There you meet most breeders and dogs and you get an impression how they should look like, how the breeders relationship with their dogs is and how their dogs behave. Titels that have been won on international dog shows very often mean absolutely nothing. We had cases on one of the biggest German dog show when the swedish judge thought that the perfectly yellow eyes of some dogs weren´t dark enough, on the one before the judge prefered shepherdlike dogs without a good mask. Because of many of those experiences I only care for the ranking on special dog shows.
If I would like to buy a puppy overseas I would wait one or two more years and spend it on visiting Europe and visiting breeders and summercamps or special breed shows. Even if a good breeder is willing to send you a dog overseas without knowing you personally he won´t give you the best of his dogs, he will give that dog to a person he knows much better and he will meet from time to time.
