My sister is a breeder and they range from $1500 to $1800 but they have a 1 year health guarantee, all shots, microchipped, AKC registration, bloodline of Champions and Best in Show, they are all in house raised and well socialized, most of the time by the time they go home at 3 months, they are pee pad trained and leash trained as well as car ready (use to being in cars) they come with dog food, beds, blankets, clothes, leashes and other little specialty items and of course their baby book so I think price can have a lot to do with some of those things rather than someone just handing you a puppy and taking your check. Everyone is different but the most important thing is what is important to you....you will HOPEFULLY have your baby for up to 15-20 years. You need to fall in love and be happy with your choice. I love my girl and if it was a bidding war, I would have sold my soul to get her...get what you love...it will be worth every dime!! |
