Price and budget
# How much does a Altdeutscher Schäferhund puppy cost?
Germany
The price of an Altdeutscher Schäferhund varies depending on the working lines, health tests and socialization. A well-bred puppy is often between 1 200 and 2 500 euros. You should also plan the budget for a very active large dog.
Purchase price
## It all depends on where your puppy comes from
It is advisable to favor a transparent breeding program regarding origins, socialization and useful tests. An abnormally low price for an Altdeutscher Schäferhund should always lead to checking the breeding conditions and the documents.
