The Price of an Cairn Terrier

The cost of purchasing a Cairn Terrier puppy in Australia can vary depending on several factors, including the breeder's reputation, the puppy's pedigree, the region, and the puppy's age and health. On average, you can expect to pay between AUD 1,500 to AUD 3,500 or even more for a Cairn Terrier puppy from a reputable breeder.

Here are some factors that can influence the cost of a Cairn Terrier puppy in Australia:

  • Breeder Reputation: Established and reputable breeders who focus on the health and well-being of their dogs and adhere to breeding standards typically charge higher prices for their puppies.

  • Pedigree: Cairn Terriers with champion bloodlines or show potential may command higher prices than those without such pedigrees.

  • Health Screening: Responsible breeders conduct health screenings on their breeding dogs to ensure they are free of hereditary conditions. Puppies from parents with clean health records may cost more.

  • Age: The age of the puppy can affect its price. Younger puppies, typically around 8 to 12 weeks old, may be more expensive than older puppies.

  • Coat Colour and Markings: Certain coat colours or markings may be considered more desirable and can impact the puppy's price.

  • Registration: Cairn Terrier puppies registered with the Australian National Kennel Council (ANKC) or other reputable kennel clubs may be priced higher.

  • Vaccinations and Microchipping: Responsible breeders often include the cost of initial vaccinations and microchipping in the puppy's price.

  • Transportation: If you are purchasing a puppy from a breeder in a different region of Australia, you may need to consider additional costs for transportation.

  • Extras: Some breeders include extras such as a puppy starter kit, training resources, or a health guarantee in the puppy's price.


 

It's important to note that while purchasing a puppy from a reputable breeder may seem more expensive upfront, it can save you money in the long run by reducing the likelihood of health issues and behaviour problems associated with poorly bred dogs.
