How much does a Picardy Shepherd kitten cost?

France

The purchase price varies depending on the reputation of the breeding kennel, the quality of the selection, the parents’ health tests, the pedigree, the puppy’s intended purpose and the guarantees provided. The relative rarity of the breed can also lengthen waiting times and limit the choice of litters.

Purchase price

It all depends on where your kitten comes from

It is recommended to favor a declared breeder who presents the parents or their documents, the screening results, the socialization conditions and the regulatory supporting documents. Shelters and associations may occasionally offer a Berger de Picardie or a dog of a similar type for adoption.

A price too good to be true?

  • An abnormally low price may conceal an unverifiable origin, insufficient socialization, or the absence of health monitoring.
  • Ask for the identification number, the LOF documents, the veterinary certificate, and the parents' health results.
  • Do not pay a deposit without the seller's verifiable identity, a clear contract, and precise information about the litter.
