How much does a Maltese puppy cost?

Answer 1

Maltese puppies can cost from around $800 to $6,000. I got one that costs $800, and I love her just as much as a $6,000 dollar one, maybe even more!

As you can see, the prices greatly range and this is primarily due to quality. The most important thing is to find a reputable and responsible Maltese breeder and buy from them. Typically, breeders with a good reputation will charge more than breeders without a the reputation, but it is usually worth it because you know you're getting your dog from a good source. If you buy from an unreputable breeder, than the cost is usually less, but the risk that the dog could develop health problems is greater, and those vet bills could far exceed the amount saved from buying from an unreputable source.

Contact many breeders and ask them lots of questions about their breeding program. Get references from others that have bought dogs from them in the past. Ten, contact those people to find out how well their experience went with that particular breeder. Do this work in the beginning could save you a lot of time, money, and heartache later.

If I were you and wanted to find a maltese. I would go online to petfinder.com or nextdaypets.com and search there for a rescue dog. They are about a hundred dollars and are very well mannered!

Answer 3

Most Maltese are expensive and a purebred purchased through a reputable breeder will cost anywhere from $600 to $5000 or more.

Maltese Puppies can cost from $800 to $6,000. But most Maltese cost about $1,200. I have 3 Maltese puppies that cost $1,500 each, so that equals to $4,500. One is a girl and 2 are boys. Lexi is the girl. The 2 boys are Rufuss and i named one after Taylor Lautner. There are so adorable. I LOVE THEM TO DEATH.
Maltese usually start from $500-$800, an average Maltese is about $1500-$1700, and a show quality Maltese can range from $2500-$5000 (which is a lot of money).... but if you are considering adopting one, it will be somewhere from zero dollars-$200 (depending on age and health of the dog).

Hope this helps!!
