Information on Dogs Pricing

If you want a well-cared for, healthy dog, it has to have a certain level of care. Our costs for puppies are based on this high quality of care provided. We don't breed a large number of dogs; we breed a select, healthy few. We are not a manufacturere of puppies, but rather we are a high quality breeder, which means that we do a lot more work for every dollar we make. But we love what we do, and here is some of what we do, so that you can feel better about the dollars you spend.

Puppy Prices range between $1195 and $1595 depending upon the sex, color, size and qualities of the puppy.

Costs for puppies is well considered. In order to insure blood lines that are healthy, AKC stud dogs are used that cost an average of $500 to $1000 per breeding.

This is a “real live” list of what we do on a regular basis in raising and selling a Royal Frenchel Puppy. Perhaps it will help you better appreciate the fees we charge for pupsand the healthy approach we take to raising them. Information can make a world of difference.
