How to Buy a Dog from Europe Safely (for Americans)

Buying a dog from Europe has become very popular among Americans in 2025. European breeders often offer stronger genetics, ethical breeding standards, and better early socialization. However, the process of buying and importing a dog from Europe to the United States has become more complex after the updated CDC import regulations. I help Americans find safe, legal, and verified ways to bring their future dogs home.
My name is Dr. Veronika Voitovska. I am a medical doctor, zoopsychologist, international dog show judge, and experienced breeder with over 15 years of practical work. I own the kennel Dognik Bulls, based in Latvia and Italy, where I raise 15 adult dogs — 10 American Pit Bull Terriers and 5 American Bullies. I have also owned Dachshunds, German Boxers, and mixed-breed dogs. My life and work are fully connected with dogs, their health, and their psychology.
Step 1: Define What You Are Looking For
Before you start searching, define your goals clearly. Do you want a puppy for your family, a show-quality dog, or a working/sport dog? Write down your preferred breed, gender, age, temperament, and budget. The more precise your request, the faster I can find your ideal match among trusted European breeders.
Step 2: Work Only with Verified Breeders
There are many fake breeders online who steal photos and videos of real puppies and ask for deposits. Working with unverified sellers is risky — many Americans lose thousands of dollars every year. I personally verify every breeder before recommending them. I check FCI or ADBA registration, microchip data, pedigree, and vaccination certificates. Every breeder in my network is trusted, ethical, and experienced with international exports.
Step 3: Follow the CDC Import Rules
In 2025, the CDC allows importing dogs to the USA only if they are at least six months old, vaccinated, microchipped, and accompanied by valid health documentation. Puppies must stay in Europe until they reach this age. I help my clients ensure that all paperwork, vaccines, and certificates meet CDC import standards before shipping.
Step 4: Transportation and Delivery
Safe transportation is critical. If your chosen breeder does not have a transporter, I can help find a trusted, experienced one. I have long-term working relationships with reliable transporters who regularly deliver dogs from Europe to the United States legally. The cost for helping you find a transporter is an additional 300–400 USD, depending on the route and airline. My main service fee for finding the dog and breeder is 300–500 USD, payable in cryptocurrency.
Step 5: Receive Regular Updates Until Delivery
Once your puppy is booked, I monitor its progress — growth, health, socialization — until it’s ready for export. I stay in contact with the breeder and keep you updated with photos and videos. My goal is to make the entire process transparent, safe, and worry-free.
