How much does a Norwegian Hound kitten cost?

Norway

The purchase price depends in particular on the breeder, the lineage, the sex, the age and compliance with the standard. The rarity of the breed can also limit the available supply.

Purchase price

It all depends on where your kitten comes from

The Norwegian Hound is preferably acquired from a declared breeder, able to present the parents, the useful tests and a clear contract. A very low price should prompt checking identification and breeding conditions. Adoption through an association remains an option, especially for an adult.
