What do you think is the most expensive breed?

Pomeranians arent cheap...

[Suki Wingy]

I've actually seen them from what looks like reputable breeders for as low as $600!

Poms?? Thats what we paid for Lily...and her breeder was awesome, yet I've seen some Poms for thousands of dollars...

well..I have never bought from a breeder or ever will..all dogs are expensive to take care of..no dogs are 'cheap' I have four dogs and they sure aren't cheap!! treats, food, toys, shots, vet bills, etc.

spoiling them? priceless!!

Well, let's see, my german shepherd mix Roscoe cost $85.00 from the shelter 9 months ago. We paid another 100 or so that night for food, toys, leash, collar, food & water bowls, etc. Then there was the cost of obedience school, more toys because he destroyed the ones he had, carpet cleaner every time he has peed on the carpet (LOTS of carpet cleaner), the vet bill when he licked his 'thingy' raw , replacing the carpet in the entry room that he ripped up, fence for the yard, replacing the molding on the doorway in the entry room that he tore off, re-painting the door because he thought if he scratched off all the paint I would magically appear...I'd have to say that my dog is the most expensive.




The way he looks at me, with adoring big brown eyes...PRICELESS!

Breeder dogs are VERY expensive. I've seen some Malteses for around 4,000 Dollars.

What do you mean “breeder dogs”? Dogs from BYBers out to make a buck, yes. But I have never seen a good conformation breeder sell a dog for that much. Maybe toys do, but I’ve never heard of it. $2000, I’ve heard of.
