Yes, if they breed for business, that is, for profit. Under the Animal Welfare and Protection Law (Articles 2 and 9) such breeding needs a VMVT permit and the activity must be registered. A kennel that plans litters and sells the young is exactly that. Under the Retail Trade Rules the VMVT number must be stated in the sale ad, so it is always worth asking for. LKD or FCI pedigree papers do not replace VMVT registration: they show the dog's ancestry, not the breeder's registration.
The number may have a typo or have been issued very recently: we update the list once a week, on Sundays. The breeder may also not be registered. Ask for the VMVT registration certificate, and if in doubt, contact VMVT.
