Why Are the Prices So High?The price of QUALITY purebred dogs is a bit high these days. Many people want to know why. For the reputable breeders who care about the breed they are breeding and are working hard to provide quality dogs, both physically and mentally, that will be an asset to the breed, there is a LOT that the breeder puts into their program before a puppy is even born!! The puppy costs themselves are minimal, unless a c-section was needed (add $600 to $1500 for that). Breeding to Strive for QualityI have invested thousands of dollars acquiring potential new breeding stock to use in my breeding program .Most oF these Pom's , after having been grown out are not the quality that I need for my breeding program . As a result I pet them out at a great loss financially since they are no linger puppies and I must give 90% of them away FREE . A good breeding program still must have the knowledge of correct canine structure and genetics (to produce true whites in my case ), what correct "type" is for that breed, a thorough understanding of the breed standard for that breed, etc. But I Only Want Pet QualityPet quality puppies from " my lines" are usually a better cut above ones who aren't simply because they are bred with the goal in mind of creating the highest quality possible. Breeders who only breed "for pets" have their goals set much lower. Costs of a Good Breeding ProgramHere are some of the things that go into creating and maintaining a breeding program of lovely dogs that are great representatives of their breed, are healthy and have good temperaments:
TOTALSWITHOUT a C-section, a conservative estimate assuming only 2 WHITE dogs were purchased and turned out (HIGHLY UNLIKELY), a litter of 3 WHITE puppies costs the breeder: $8,340.00 (with spay/neuter, microchip and Rabies). THIS IS $2,780 PER PUPPY!! To be quite honest, most GOOD breeders have actually paid a LOT more (most of us would much rather NOT look at the actual figures!). And so now you know, Why the Prices Are So High :-). |
