How much does a Transylvanian Hound cost?

Hungary

The purchase price of this breed generally remains moderate for a hunting dog that is still relatively little-known. The overall budget then depends mainly on the dog's level of activity, the quality of the breeding, and the health monitoring put in place.

Purchase price

It all depends on where your puppy comes from

The Transylvanian Hound is preferably acquired from a declared breeder, able to present the parents, the useful tests and a clear contract. A very low price should prompt checking identification and breeding conditions. Adoption through an association remains an option, especially for an adult.
