Inexpensive dog breeds

Poodle

The Poodle is an incredibly smart companion dog (ranks second in intelligence). Representatives of this breed find a common language with any person (even a child) and are very trainable, as they grasp everything on the fly.

Poodles are distinguished by their unconditional loyalty, friendly disposition, activity and energy. Such dogs live for a long time - from 12 to 15 years.

Types of guide dogs

Representatives of the guide dog breed are not only a friend, but sometimes simply an irreplaceable companion and assistant for a person with disabilities.

These animals provide these people with assistance that those closest to them cannot offer. Such a pet is with a disabled person 24 hours a day.

All experts recommend the following dog breeds as guide dogs:

Giant Schnauzer;
Rottweiler;
Labrador Retriever
German Shepherd.

All these animals are easy to train and very loyal. Among others, American breeds of guide dogs are very popular.

Spaniel

There are many varieties of this breed: American, English, Russian. However, all spaniels have one thing in common - energy.

Representatives of the breed love active walks in the fresh air, so you need to be prepared for the fact that you will have to walk the dog often and for a long time. Despite their eccentric nature, spaniels are easy to train and unconditionally obey their owner if he is an authority for them.

Inexpensive dog breeds are predominantly small and medium-sized animals that are common in their country. Wanting to save money, future owners often look for offers of puppies at low prices. However, it is important to understand that even if buying a pet is not too burdensome for the family budget, you will need money for food, care, accessories, and medical services. The list of cheap dogs includes only generally recognized breeds with names and photos. Mutts, dogs without pedigree and mixed breeds of any type have low prices or are given away for free.

In Russia, inexpensive small breeds are popular: toy terrier, pug, Pekingese, Yorkshire terrier, English and American cocker spaniels. Having their miniature size and easy-going nature, the dogs are suitable for apartments and do not cause any inconvenience to the owner. More active, cheaper breeds include dachshund, Jack Russell terrier, Russian hunting spaniel, and beagle. Among medium and large-sized dogs, the Golden Retriever, Moscow Watchdog, West Siberian Laika, East European Shepherd, and Dalmatian are inexpensive.

The price of a puppy largely depends on the class. The most budget category is “pet”. It includes dogs that will not be able to participate in breeding or make a show career. At the same time, for people who dream of a purebred dog, but have limited funds, a pet-class puppy will be an excellent companion. To buy a dog inexpensively, you should pay attention to the region of sale, color and gender. In large cities, the demand for dogs and the costs of maintaining them are higher; accordingly, breeders raise prices for puppies. But if you go to a neighboring region to pick up a furry friend, the trip will most likely pay off. In addition, animals of rare colors are more expensive than typical representatives of the breed. As for gender, among large dogs with pronounced guarding and watchdog qualities, females are cheaper. For small breeds, the situation is the opposite - a “girl” is more profitable to take for breeding and more interesting to dress up, so a “boy” will cost less.

It is best to purchase a puppy from a kennel with long experience and positive reviews. Although bulletin boards and bird market sellers offer tempting prices, this purchase should be avoided. A dog may grow up with a completely different appearance from what is provided for in the breed standard, and may also have serious health problems, the elimination of which will “eat up” all the savings.

Boxer

Some people call boxers unbalanced and cruel, but completely undeservedly. Representatives of this breed love children and have a calm and peaceful disposition.

Boxers are easy to train and are completely devoted to their owner. They are often used as bodyguards, guide dogs and guard dogs. Those who are ready for intense long walks should own such animals.

What determines the price

Many people want to buy a four-legged faithful pet, but the cost of dogs often discourages them from purchasing a puppy. There are reasons for inflated prices. After all, the future owner should think not only about money, but also about further care.

Prices for cheap dog breeds are close to maximum levels for a reason. First of all, this is associated with great responsibility, and those who want to buy an animal cannot always provide the necessary care for it, feed it properly and regularly go to the veterinary clinic. After all, finding the amount to purchase is not all that is required. The owner will have to raise the dog and purchase the following things:

bowls for water and food;
stern;
toys and so on.

Nobody canceled vaccinations and preventive examinations. Therefore, the inflated cost allows us to weed out those who in the future will not be able to take good care of the dog and provide it with all the above attributes.

The concept of “cheap types of dogs” implies a price from 5 to 80 thousand rubles. But when buying an animal in the range of five to fifteen thousand rubles, you should understand that with such a pet it is unlikely to be possible to participate in competitions and exhibitions. But the dog will be a devoted friend!

Types of long-living dogs

Most often, representatives of the long-lived dog breed are able to live up to 15-16 years. The longest-living pets include the Yorkshire Terrier, Poodle, Maltese, Miniature Schnauzer, Boston Terrier, Shih Tzu and Dachshund.

What affects the price of a puppy

The following factors influence the cost of a puppy:

Puppy class, i.e. which of the three known classes it belongs to: domestic dog (pet class), dog for breeding (breeding class), dog for exhibitions (show class). Show-class puppies are born rarely, so their price will be higher.
The gender of the puppy in any breed also affects the cost. Bitches are valued higher than males, due to the fact that you can make money on future puppies.
Pedigree, which gives preferences in price.
Number of puppies born. There is a direct relationship: the more, the cheaper, and vice versa.
Cost of mating. Dogs of many breeds bear the “honorary title” of superdog. Puppies from him will be expensive.
Breed fashion can do wonders for price. Newfangled miniature puppy breeds are reaching sky-high prices.
Puppy age. Often depends on buyer requests. Some people are interested in buying a teenager, while others would like to have a baby and raise him themselves.
Successful bargaining. It happens that the seller is ready to give in and give the baby away inexpensively, as long as the puppies end up in good hands.

In general, consider the options that suit you.
