How Much Does A Dog Cost in China
Honestly, I wouldn’t know as we don’t keep a dog and also don’t intend to do so as space is limited in Shanghainese apartments and the last thing I’ll ever consider is getting a dog smaller than a rat. So, no, no dog for me. But for China’s nouveaux riches the Tibetan Mastiff is apparently a status symbol worth paying more, as it’s a rare breed. More than 30,000 RMb for a puppy and grown males are valued up to 300,000 Rmb.
The Times has added a list for reference of dog prices in China (not sure how accurate they are so please fill in if you have ever bought a canine here in Shanghai)
China’s top dogs
Pekinese 500 yuan
Dachshund 1,000 yuan
Basset hound 3,000 yuan
White wire fox terrier 1,500 yuan
Pomeranian 800 yuan

Sounds about right, we’re budgeting about RMB 2000.

What kind of dog are you planning to buy?

If I understand correctly you also need to pay some sort of fee for a dog license in China.
Personally I wouldn’t really consider having a dog here as my apartment is far too small and areas near my apartment don’t offer much for talking walks. I seriously considered it though while living in PuDong near Century Park. That area has quite a few areas for nice dog walks.

500 for a pekinese is about right.
Me and my girlfriend bought ours for a bit more.
He’s known around the neighbourhood as “800 kuai Pepe.”

I have a much more cost effective way for you - adopt fom SCAA! My pups was found on the street and a right mess - we got her fixed up (900rmb for the vacinations etc) and now she’s happy and healthy!

Just buy a dog there as you will have saved one from a life on the street and abuse.

Im looking at buying a Samoyed but having alot of trouble locating a breeder here in China, anyone got any ideas (dont say search the web please, 3 hours later and not being able to read Chinese writing does not help in the slightest).
Any contacts would be appreciated.

Hello we are looking to get a husky puppy but after looking into the pet shops and such have decided against it unless we can find a breeder pref an English breeder who can ensure relevent checks for parents and pups. I know it is a big ask but does anyone have any ideas?
thanks
