Price and budget

How much does a Border Collie puppy cost?

United Kingdom

The purchase price of the Border Collie varies mainly depending on the quality of the selection, the health tests carried out, the lineage and the reputation of the breeding kennel. Beyond the purchase price, you should anticipate a regular budget for food, veterinary follow-up and activities.

A price that seems too good to be true?

  • An abnormally low price should lead you to check the breeding conditions and the absence of screenings
  • Color or a fashion effect should never take precedence over health and temperament
  • Ask for the results of available tests and observe the parents' behavior if possible
