Price and budget
# How much does a Akita Inu puppy cost?
Japan
The price of an Akita Inu varies mainly according to the quality of the lineage, the reputation of the breeding kennel, the health tests carried out and compliance with the standard. A well-selected puppy represents a significant initial investment, generally consistent with the breeding work required by the breed.
Purchase price
## It all depends on where your puppy comes from
For this breed, buying from a serious breeder, transparent about health and socialization, remains the most reliable route. It is recommended to compare breeding conditions, the guarantees provided and the screenings before any reservation.

- Ask for the relevant health screenings of the breeding dogs and a clear contract.
- The maintenance budget over several years often exceeds the purchase price.
