It all depends on where your puppy comes from
The acquisition channel strongly influences the price and the level of health or behavioral guarantees. For a rare breed, a reputable breeder generally remains the clearest option in terms of follow-up and traceability. Adoption or purchase between private individuals require more prior checks.
