Our Questionnaire for puppy buyers
Are you interested in a puppy from our kennel? Have a look at the litter-page for information about our plans in future.

Please fill in this quastionnaire, so that I can make myself a picture of you.
It's very important for me that the pups are sold as sports-/working dogs and therefore I want to make sure that they are placed in the right homes.
