The dog's were imported to the US by a hunter out of Norway. He now resides in states and he is seeding out the dogs to the right people that will hunt the dogs. I have access to the two I posted and they are in NJ, but the hunter from Norway has 10 more and he has collaborated with good hunters to get really good dogs. I have to wait till 2013 because that's when they are going to breed the dogs that I have access to. I don't want to import a dog so it makes it easier. I am also planning to buy a home in the spring so I want to be settled in before I get the new big dog lol
