How much does a purebred dog cost?

Shelby Marlo, CPDT (Animal Behavioral Specialist, Professional Dog trainer) gives expert video advice on: Where do I go to get a dog?; Don't shelter or rescue dogs come with too many problems?; Do dog breeders provide the healthiest dogs? and more...

Depending on the breed you are looking for, usually if you are looking at a dog that's about $200, $300, or 4... $200 to 300, that's kind of a sign of probably not a well bred dog – lower end. $500 is probably the starting amount for a purebred dog, all the way up to a couple of thousand. Cavalier Charles dogs tend to be in the $2,000 range... I'm not sure why... they are pretty, you know, around these days – but they're are around $2,400 is the top amount I've ever heard for a Cavalier dog... and the Labradoodle dogs sometimes can cost that much as well.
