Dragonmark, there are a lot more people hunting with dogs over here, and in different areas and with a different approach, so in each area they breed for a different type. The formula may be a little different, so if by true, you mean do they hunt well in their conditions yes, if you mean do they look like "show" peas in a pod , no. And no one cares, some lines do conform more as a look alike article, but in general they are purpose bred, the better lines will fetch more of course, but say up to $250
