adoption fee/price?

**.sarah** · 05-24-2006, 12:38 PM

Mandy's adoption fee was $65

Nova was $300

Luka was adopted for free (the humane society wouldn't let us pay since we volunteer a lot)

Buck was $175 - I got a huge discount for helping out with the litter

Deebo was $250. We took him back to the breeders house with us when we went to get Jackson for Robin's mom, and they said we owed them some more money because he stayed so small..

They charge more for their smaller pups.

Skylar was $425. I would have paid 425,000,000 though for her.. I've always wanted a harlequin great dane, and her being a blue harlequin made it even more special.. But Skylar chose me. We went over there to see the puppies and she followed me everywhere I went and then when I picked her up she snuggled up on my shoulder and went to sleep. When Robin tried to pet her she started whining.. Lol.. Skylar is definitely a momma's baby. Her personality is what won me over... I wouldn't trade her for anything in the world.

Itty Bitty (Isabelle) was $200.. The woman wanted $250 for the puppies, and we were happy to pay that, but we talked her down to $200.. There is no way I would have left her there regardless of how much they wanted for her. The conditions they kept those poor puppies in was horrible. I would have taken them all if I could have, just to get them out of that place. We reported them to CKC after we got her.

Jackson was $300, but we didn't pay for him. Robin's mom did, and then they were going to get rid of him because she was going to be staying in a rehabilitation center/nursing home, and Robin didn't want to let them do that, so we just took him back home with us.

Annie & Bailee were free.. I got Annie from some people who didn't want her anymore, and Bailee was from an accidental litter Annie had.

I haven't gotten the chance to adopt YET, but all the dogs and cats at our no kill HS are $50, and most of them have already been fixed.

Our animal shelter charges $120 for puppies and $90 for adults. They are all speutered and UTD on shots.

The rescue I got Jack from charges $115.

Mickey's was $151.00 from Funds For Furry Friends
Molly's was $164.00 from Animal Services

The dogs adopted from the Humane Society were all 160. Muskwa was 350 from his breeder. I didn't pay anything for the ones I've adopted from other mushers. At least not to adopt them, I've paid plenty for other things for them!

The cats were 120 from the Humane Society. Polly Paws' bail from the pound was 40 bucks.

Um... wow. That blows. =( Sounds like a very caring breeder to me! xP

Gonzo was free. They just wanted to "get rid" of him. Their loss, our gain! Oh, we did give a $100 donation to BCRNC, but that was not required.

Fozzie was $150 and totalllly worth it. Some man couldn't believe we adopted him for $150, he said he saw mixed puppies that were way less cute at the pet store for over 1 grand. LOL! I had to explain that there are thousands of adorable mix & purebred puppies for the same price in shelters everywhere.

all my pups were 40 euros with everything inlcuded (spay/nueter, vacs, chip).

Oliver was free from the vets, but we had to pay for all the extras.

Kai was $500 (breeder). His breeder is an idiot. Though I don't regret getting him, I'm much more careful about which breeders I go to now.

Kaedyn was $150 (shelter).

My Groenendael pup will be free from an AWESOME breeder LOL.. wolfsoul. Pretty darn awesome since I'll be showing her, doing agility, obedience, flyball and possibly breeding her depending on how she turns out.

Yeah, really... I told them what I thought of them when they told me that.. I told Robin that we shouldn't get her mom a pup from them, but ever since we got Deebo, her mom has been wanting a puppy from them.

I wouldn't have wasted my money supporting them again, and I tried to talk her out of it, but you can't change a 65 y.o. womans mind.
