How do we find one??????
These are a mixed breed and not a purebred. They are no different than any other mutt at a rescue or SPCA. You will over pay for the mutt because you have been scammed into thinking it is a rare and special breed. Want a mutt get one from rescue, don’t encourage backyard scammers into selling mutts for top dollar by buying one.
