Costs for purchasing and keeping dogs
Purchase with the breeder
From a reputable breeder, the acquisition cost is usually at about 1000.00 € to 1500.00 €.
This includes:
Stud fee for mating (which costs between 750.00 -1,000.00 EUR)
Preliminary investigations by the veterinarian before birth (ultrasound of the pregnant bitch, the bitch appropriate diet)
Immediate follow-up with vet with findings after birth
Sufficient social and family environment for the puppy as early as weeks of the 2nd
Deworming, eye tests
Chip the puppies
All necessary vaccinations
Basic equipment package (usual security blanket of the puppy, food equipment for the upcoming first day)
Puppy Primer by Barf-diet food plans, including source directory
Breeding control of a breed warden of C.E.R. the puppies and bitches control / assessment takes place during the second week of life, still a puppy finds acceptance in the 7-8 th week of (the breeder pay for both !)
Pedigree, from the VDH conducted club
Purchase accessories:
Acquisition of the first leash / collar (from 20.00 to 50.00 €)
Purchase blanket / basket / toy (from approx € 70.00)
Transportbox for vehicle purchase (from approx € 60.00)
At the level of these costs is crucial in most cases, of which selection the new owner hits.
Ongoing costs:
Dog tax depends on the community (about 50.00 to 120.00 € per year)
Feed costs & Treats (from 35.00 € to 100.00 € per month)
Veterinary costs in general (approx € 70.00 to 150.00 per year)
Veterinary fees for accident / emergency (from approx € 200.00)
Dog insurance (from about 75.00 EUR per year)
Dog school / training (approx. 50.00 EUR per month)
Please remember them before purchasing the dog if she can wear the monthly costs easily. Furthermore they should for any possible diseases a monthly surplus of 50.00 EUR form ... ie. Create a savings account and put back the amount. I personally would say that an amount of 600.00 EUR should be available.
As a serious breeder I am always there for my puppies.
When choosing a puppy, I am with you, my long-time dog owners experience aside and advise you what puppy suits you and your circumstances. Every dog has from an early age to his own nature, his own character ... there are the young gun, the conservative timid, the meek ... all that I observe, as the puppies live in close contact with us, precisely in order to give you the right choice to make .... my goal is to find the right puppy for the family and the right puppy to make the families happy with my him.
Surely you know the statement ..
"Whoever saves in the purchase, who pays the bill later mostly for it."
Unfortunately, there are among the so-called "breeders" many black sheep who are not going to the dog as such, but sees in the breeding / propagating just the money. These "breeders" sell the puppies at dumping prices from 350,00 EUR ... please ask yourself the question, how can such a puppy will be offered at such a price when you consider the cost of causing the dog to a healthy mother to birth, the cost of feed for the puppy, vaccination and chip costs ... please do not buy this "bargain counter puppies" ... those prices are always at the expense of the health of the puppies and mother dogs. A sick puppy costs many times, if you counted along the veterinary costs incurred as a puppy from a responsible breeder.
