Price and budget
# How much does a Schnauzer puppy cost?
Germany
The price of a Schnauzer varies mainly depending on the origin of the bloodline, the reputation of the breeding kennel, conformity to the standard and the quality of the follow-up offered. Beyond the purchase price, you must factor in the annual budget for upkeep, health, food and grooming.
Purchase price
## It all depends on where your puppy comes from
To acquire a Schnauzer in good conditions, it is preferable to favor a serious breeder who properly socializes the puppies, provides the useful tests and supports the buyer after the dog's departure. Cheaper ads require increased vigilance regarding identification, health status and traceability.

## A price that seems too good to be true?
- An abnormally low price should prompt you to verify the identification, the puppy’s real age, and the breeding conditions.
- Always ask for the health documents, the identification number, and information about the parents.
- Avoid impulsive purchases without a visit, without a serious discussion with the breeder, or without follow-up after adoption.
