How to Determine Prices for French Bulldog Puppies

If you are planning on buying French bulldog, chances are you have already resigned yourself to living with a dog that snorts and snuffs his way through life. However, you must also be prepared to spend a lot of money, as French bulldogs---like many purebred dogs---are expensive to purchase. Before you purchase a puppy, it is important to look into how much the puppies actually cost---purchasing a dog for too little is often an indication that the breeder is substandard. You obviously want to avoid paying more than you have to for a quality dog.

      Contact several breeders of French bulldogs in your area to compare prices. If you know a few breeders nearby, call them and ask how much they sell their puppies. A good breeder is more than willing to answer any questions you might have, even if they are about cost. Compare the price estimates the breeders give you to determine what a normal price range is.

      Join a forum dedicated to French bulldogs and ask the members how much they paid for their dog, and where they bought their dog from. Forum members are a great resource because they have already completed the purchase of a puppy---use their experience to your advantage to determine how much your pup should cost.
