How much does a Flat-Coated Retriever kitten cost?

United Kingdom

The Flat-Coated Retriever remains a less widespread breed than other retrievers, which can affect the availability of puppies and waiting times. The price mainly depends on the seriousness of the breeding, the origins, the health monitoring of the parents and local demand.

Purchase price

It all depends on where your kitten comes from

In France, the purchase is most often made from a declared breeding kennel offering identified, socialized puppies with health monitoring. For this breed that is still relatively confidential, the quality of selection matters more than simple geographic proximity.

A price too good to be true?

  • An abnormally low price should prompt you to have the puppy’s identification, health status, and origin documents checked.
  • Always ask for proof of vaccination, microchip, and the available screening results before any reservation.
