How much does a Belgian Shepherd Dog (Groenendael) kitten cost?

The price of a puppy varies depending on the reputation of the kennel, the quality of the selection, the parents' health tests, the pedigree and the dog's intended purpose. The purchase budget must be supplemented by expenses for food, veterinary preventive care, training, insurance and equipment.

Purchase price

It all depends on where your kitten comes from

A serious breeder provides identification and health documents, presents the parents or their information, explains the tests carried out and supports the adopter. Adoption through an association is also a possibility, especially for an adult or a rehomed dog.

  • The puppy must be identified, at least eight weeks old, and accompanied by the required documents.
