No they cant test the genes so it is all up to the pedigree papers and I suppose the general look of the dog. yes $9000.00 is alot but I still need about another $1000.00 at least. But I am getting married next year so the savings are on hold while I save for that. You have to be really passionate about the breed to want to import so maybe thats a good thing. my Czech Shepherd (wolfdog) cost about $3000.00 without papers and that was to buy from Australian Breeder. I am also going to get a Timber Shepherd in a little while and they are said to be about the same. So you can tell that I REALLY love these dogs. If you add the cost of the 4 dogs I want and have its about $17000.00 my fiancee thinks Im mad
