Price and budget
# How much does a Hokkaido Ken puppy cost?
Japan
The price of a Hokkaïdo Ken varies depending on the lineage, the seriousness of the breeding, the screenings and the socialization. The maintenance budget (food, veterinary care, training) often exceeds the purchase price over time.
Purchase price
## It all depends on where your puppy comes from
The Hokkaïdo Ken is preferably acquired from a declared breeder, able to present the parents, the useful tests and a clear contract. A very low price should lead to checking identification and breeding conditions. Adoption through an association remains an option, especially for an adult.
| Declared LOF breeding programThe right choice Identified, socialized puppy, from a monitored breeding program | €1,200 – €2,000 |
| --- | --- |
| Show or working line Desired type, valued origins and documented screenings | €1,380 – €2,000 |
| Association or shelter More often an assessed adult, depending on the association | €150 – €450 |

## A price that seems too good to be true?
