How much does it cost to adopt a puppy?

Answer 1

Depends on what kind of puppy,shots will be the most of your cost to start with,once you get those out of the way,you will spend about $20.00 to $50.00 a month,it also depends on how spoiled it is,every time I go to the store mine (2) get a new toy and treats or an outfit.People spend hundreds a month on theirs,so it depends on you.

Answer 2

Puppies and other dogs have several costs during the year, food, vets, licenses, grooming and toys. More expenses arise if you have them fixed or if they need extra medical care for accidents. Assuming $2/day for food, $200/yr for normal vet services, $50/yr for licenses you should budget about $1000/yr.

Answer 3

This can depend on where you get the puppy from, how old the puppy is, what breed it is and whether it is Kennel Club registered. Most dog shelters charge around £160 for a puppy, whereas breeders may charge considerably more. Younger puppies are usually more expensive than slightly older puppies because most people aim to buy puppies that are around 8 weeks old. Pedigree puppies are also usually advertised for more money than crossbreeds, with breeds such as the English Bulldog often being advertised for £1000 or more. To give you some examples, my two Kennel Club registered Miniature Dachshunds cost £400 each from their previous owner. My large crossbreed Dog cost £120 from a dog shelter when he was 6 months old. My purebred (but not KC reg.) Staffordshire Bull Terrier cost £250 from her breeder at 11 weeks of age, whilst my other Stafford cost £350 from the breeder at 8 weeks of age. So do some looking around and see what you find!

Answer 4

If a dog is a pure bred it costs at least $150 a mixed breed will cost any thing up from $10

----------------------------

Cost of a Dog: $0.00 - $1,500

I paid: $500

Breed: Boxer Purebred

Unless you have a friend giving away free puppies you will usually have to pay something for the dog itself. Rescue shelters are usually inexpensive, followed by pet stores and then breeders being the most expensive.

You can save a lot of money by rescuing an animal, not to mention you are saving its life. If you are set on going to a breeder make sure you do your homework so you know they are of high ethical quality and you will get what you pay for.

Answer 5

its depends on how little or big the canine is. If its big it will be $150, but if its little its $100

I don't know where people get these answers. It depends, but not on the size of the dog. Sometimes you can get unwanted or mixed breed puppies free. Show dog puppies can cost thousands. First, you need to decide what kind of dog you want, or at least general characteristics. Big or small? Long hair or short hair? Lap dog or hiking buddy? Do you live on a farm or in a big city apartment apartment? Try contacting your local animal shelter, or the nearest kennel club (the people who run dog shows in your area). They are real experts, and can give you good advice about types of dogs and good sources for the kind you want.

Answer 6

a dog cost around 200 to 400 dollars depending on the breed. If getting a dog from a shelter, the cost is much lower than this.

Answer 7

From a reputable breeder a healthy Boxer puppy would cost you around $300-$600.

Answer 8

On average I would say that they are 200 or 400 if getting at shelter it would be way more lower in the costs
