What can I expect to pay for a Coton de Tulear puppy? Pet/Companion Coton de Tulear puppies from code of ethic breeders who belong to reputable Coton de Tulear breed clubs in the USA typically range in price from $2,000.00 to $3,000.00. Show/Breeding prospect puppies are priced from $3,000.00 to $5,000.00. Coton de Tulear breeders in the USA who are passionate about the Coton de Tulear breed belong to one or more of the following breed clubs - American Coton Club, American Association of the Coton de Tulear, United States of America Coton de Tulear Club or the North American Coton Association. If you want a pure bred Coton then purchase a Coton from a breeder who cares enough about the Coton de Tulear breed to be a member of one of the above breed clubs. Code of Ethic breeders who belong to the reputable Coton de Tulear breed clubs set high standards to preserve, honor and protect the Coton de Tulear breed from exploitation and careless breeding practices. Code of Ethic breeders have an obligation to protect the health and welfare of the Coton de Tulear breed. Most COE breeders screen their Cotons using available health tests and results are made public on the OFFA and CERF web sites. COE breeders stay informed of all health and genetic issues related to the Coton de Tuelar breed. COE breeders only breed together Coton de Tulear dogs. Our Cotons will never be bred to mixed breed dogs or other pure bred breeds of dog. COE breeders will never place or sell a Coton for resale to a pet store, dealer, wholesaler, broker or backyard breeder.
Our pet/companion Coton de Tulear puppies are $2,200.00. Our potentially breedable quality puppies are $2,800.00 to pet/companion homes with a spay/neuter contract. These puppies are for people who want a "potentially breedable quality" puppy but do not want to breed. Show/Breeding prospect puppies with breeding rights are $3,500.00. In order to purchase a show/breeding prospect puppy the owner must be a member of at least one of the reputable breed clubs (American Coton Club - ACC, American Association Coton de Tulear - AACDT, United States of American Coton de Tulear Club - USACTC) and follow the Code Of Ethics for the breed club. This will be stipulated in the show/breeding prospect contract. Our puppies are microchiped, they have had their first vaccination and health exam at Lake Stevens Animal Hospital with Dr. Renee Gray. A CERF eye exam will be done on each puppy at the Animal Eye Clinic in Seattle, WA. For those purchasing pet/companion and potentially breedable quality Cotons that will not be bred - the registration/pedigree papers for your Coton will be sent to you after spay/neuter surgery is done. Our puppies will not be spay/neutered before six months of age. This will be stipulated in the puppy contract. Our puppies are sent home with a comprehensive contract for the protection of our puppies, their owners and ourselves. |
