How Much Does a Labrador Cost? What Are the Reasons Affecting the Price?
Labradors originate from Newfoundland, Canada, and have a simple, sunny temperament, being calm and gentle. They are loyal and friendly to people, loved by many. Those who want to get a Labrador must be curious about the market price, so this article will help you understand Labrador market prices and their influencing factors.
First of all, the price of a Labrador is affected by many factors, so it varies slightly. Besides regional factors, the price of a purebred Labrador needs to comprehensively consider its pedigree, appearance, health condition, and training achievements. Currently, the price of a show-level Labrador is at least over 10,000 RMB, and such show-level Labradors are not simply bought with money.
Generally, the direct offspring of show-level Labradors, with legitimate pedigree certificates, are priced at over 10,000 RMB. However, parents need to be aware that pedigree certificate management in China is very inadequate, so many pedigree certificates do not correspond to the actual dogs. Therefore, when choosing a Labrador, parents should not blindly trust pedigree certificates but also comprehensively assess the Labrador's appearance, health status, and training results.
Ordinary pet-grade Labradors are relatively cheaper, generally priced between 3,000 to 8,000 RMB depending on the quality of their appearance. Labradors priced below 3,000 RMB should be selected with caution, as they may have poor breed quality or other health risks, such as mixed fur or skeletal development problems.
Finally, Labradors have been extremely popular in the pet market in recent years. Moreover, Labradors are a breed that is easily mixed. So, dogs priced under a few hundred RMB are usually Labradors mixed with other breeds.
However, if you choose a Labrador primarily as a companion friend, then breed quality is not the most important factor. The healthiest Labrador that gets along well with you is your best choice.
