Why are dogs so expensive right now? It is something all of you will want to know once you see the prices! In the lack of a better word, dogs and puppies are extremely expensive these days and you need to know why.

Below we will give you the answer that is easy to understand but will take some time.

Dogs are more expensive due to the COVID19 pandemic

Believe it or not, dogs are far more expensive right now due to the pandemic. Why are dogs so expensive due to pandemic you may wonder? The explanation is obvious and there are a few reasons. 

First of all, most if not all people are spending more time indoors and they are bored. Having friends over isn’t an option for most of them. On the other hand, having a dog is possible and it is extremely appealing. You can have a great friend that will make your time pass easier and you can also have fun.

You can walk the dog, play with him and do all sorts of things that normally you can’t. Without a dog many people are bored and they have too much free time. As such, the demand for dogs has increased significantly.

The second reason is that many people are now breeders. They use this as an extra income and they usually keep the dogs in filthy and not ideal conditions. There are a lot of scammers as well so you need to be careful. 

Last but not least, some people want to add a second dog to their home so they can have even more fun during the pandemic. When combined, you can see that the demand is much higher right now and as such, the price is going up. 

At the moment, dogs and puppies are 3 times more expensive than usual. This happened due to the reasons we have explained above and we believe that the process will remain high as long as the pandemic lasts. This can be a few months or a few years so there is no way to tell for sure when the best moment to buy a dog is.

The cost of breeding is very high

This explanation doesn’t refer to the pandemic but it has been present for ages. In the lack of a better word, breeding is expensive and you can see that if you want healthy and excellent puppies and dogs, you must invest a lot of time and money into it. 

Preparing a dog for litter will cost a breeder around $1000. C-section can cost the same or even more depending on the breed. Some of the most expensive dog breeds are Chow Chow and French Bulldog but there are plenty more breeds that are also considered expensive. 

Don’t forget that C-section is commonly used for English Bulldogs and you can expect only 3-4 puppies from a single litter. This means that C-section will cost much more and a breeder needs that money back when selling puppies. 

There are all kinds of additional things you need to know and you will pay when getting a dog or a puppy. For instance, vaccinations, microchipping genetic tests, eye-screening, registration and so much more are mandatory and recommended. All of these will make you have to pay more for a puppy or your new dog and there is no way to avoid the high price without any consequences. 

A breeder will need plenty of time as well. On average, they will spend over 60 hours carrying about puppies and the dogs. The time is expensive so you can get a better idea why the dogs are really expensive. Once again, this will depend on a breed and many factors related to breeding, but the price is high, period. 

Yes, you can save some money by opting for a puppy or a dog that is ‘’affordable’’. This isn’t recommended. You can end up with a sick, unhealthy, or not pureblood dog at all. You will experience countless problems later in life with your new pet and this is something you should avoid as much as you can! We must add that there are a lot of scammers who will sell you all kinds of dogs and even sell you dogs that do not exist!

Get a rescue dog to save money

It is possible and actually very common at the moment to get a rescue dog. First and foremost, you will save a lot of money. This will cost you between $100 and $700 while purchasing a dog will cost you 3-4 times as much.

There are additional perks and advantages of using this method, besides saving a lot of money.

You will save a life and you can have a best friend who will love you the entire life. You are doing a good deed and you should be happy and proud. This is actually the main reason why so many people want a rescue dog instead of buying one.

You also get a dog that has all vaccinations completed and he or she is spayed/neutered. In some cases, you can even adopt a trained dog that is an impressive advantage. You will save even more time and money. A strange advantage is the ability to see and ‘’try’’ the dog before you bring him home.

This can help you later on. In addition, you are also making it harder for scammers and those who breed dogs in unhealthy conditions to sell a dog. 

The final word

Why are dogs so expensive? Well, now you know the answer. In general, demand is higher than ever and more people want a pet. Breeding is more expensive than ever before as well and there are a lot of things to cover in order to have healthy and perfect puppies/dogs.

Although all dog breeds are expensive, the prices range significantly. There are countless factors that will determine the actual cost of buying a puppy or a dog and breed is just one of them.
