How much do dachshund puppies cost?
My dachshund, Angel, is about to have a set of puppies! Both her and the father are registered, and are purebreds. How much should I sell the puppies for? Keep in mind that I live in a town of roughly 582 people, but I am about an hour away from Kansas City, MO, if my location even affects the price at all...lol.
Update:Also, I will not spay Angel. I didn't even think she could get pregnant anymore, since she's so old. I am not going to go into the dog breeding business. I'm just a 16 year old girl and my dog happened to be pregnant. She'll probably be done after this. It's not like I will be selling unhealthy dogs. If something is wrong with them, I will not sell them.

Look in your local newspaper or online service like Craigslist for others who are selling doxies. Registered where? The DRA or another bogus registry? Unless the dogs are AKC or CKC AND you have the papers and know how to register your future litter -- the pups are not worth anything as a "purebred dachshund". You probably will not be able to sell them for more than $200 as unpapered doxies.
Please spay your female -- sorry but you should not be breeding dogs if you do not know anything about the business of breeding.
Remember as an ethical breeder, you should be offering a 100% refund on any puppy that does not pass a vet exam or develops a genetic disease in the future. Did you CERF or do any genetic testing on both parents before you bred them? Are you taking off declaws at birth? What about vacinations - are you doing the initial round or is your vet? Also - you should be offering to rehome the puppy at any point during its' lifetime should the owners not be able to care for it..
When I bought my dachshund as a puppy, she was $275. That included her first round of shots. But, there are many other breeders willing to sell dachshund puppies from $50 and up. It just depends. I would just make sure it comes from a good home so it will probably have a good temperament.
even if her parents are registered, if Angel and the boy dog that breed with her is not registered the puppies are not worth $500 or higher. If the male dog that bred with Angel is not pure breed or a dachshund, the puppies are not worth more than $100. If the pups and their parents are registered, then they are worth at least $600-$900.
I got my doxie in California for $800. But, that was 3 years ago, and now thet breeder is selling them for $600. I suggest yo sell yours for about $300-$600. Those ideal prices for a doxie. btw great dogs!!! i hope this helps!
