I've been trading some email with Zlatko Jojkic in Serbia.  He's a veterinary student in Serbia who breeds GSP's with his folks.  It's really interesting because they breed dogs as a "hobby and passion" and the similarities between what we do and how we go about it are amazing.  Their dogs sell at a premium to other GSP's in Serbia (even would be on the high-end for Maine) as mine do.  Good quality commands a premium price.  The produce a few litters a year and breed for high quality.  Judging by the pictures, they are doing what the have set their minds to. 

Maybe someday I will import a pregnant bitch from them.
