Day to day
And once at home?
A price too good to be true?
- A very low price without documents or a visit to the breeding facility should prompt caution.
- Ask for the veterinary certificate, identification, the information document and, where applicable, LOF supporting documents.
- Do not pay a deposit before having verified the seller's identity and the real existence of the litter.
- A puppy must not be transferred before the legal age and must be identified before the transfer.
FAQ
Your questions about price
Answers to future buyers’ questions.
The commonly observed range depends on the pedigree, the breeding, health checks and the puppy's intended purpose. You must add the initial expenses, then a monthly budget for food, care, possible insurance and maintenance.
A serious breeder presents the parents and their documents, explains their selection, socializes the puppies, shows the living conditions and provides the required supporting documents. They also ask questions about the future home and remain available after adoption.
The differences reflect in particular the quality of the lines, show or working results, screenings, socialization, veterinary costs, the region and the rarity of available litters.
