Pricing Information
What exactly are you paying for?
Due to the current state of the economy and puppy market in general there have been some questions regarding pricing, so I would like to break it all down into detail.
-
Base price for prepaid AKC registration on a puppy is $1500. This is the average for wooly and extreme wooly only AKC registered puppy.
-
The care we provide our puppies begins before our puppies are even made. We ensure healthy litters by health tested parents, of which costs on average $600 per dog to be fully tested. Males are around $800 to include sperm analysis.
-
We also feed our dogs premium kibble and a raw diet. We don't attribute cost at all to this, I just wanted to include it here as well.
-
When our puppies are born they are raised by Early Neurological Stimulation, Early Sensory Introductions, and PuppyCulture program. Together these total over $200, not to mention the time spent on each litter doing said programs.
-
Beginning at only two weeks of age puppies are given their first medications--wormer. Over their 12 weeks with us puppies will receive 4 doses of three different de-wormers to cover all spectrums. They will also have a Nexgard, Heartworm Prevention, all four puppy booster vaccines, as well as being microchipped and prepaid registry. We also include a health certificate from a board certified veterinarian and vet record card. All-in-all this totals to over $600 for each puppy.
-
Then we like to give each family the best head-start with a new puppy package containing a wire kennel, food and water bowl, a bed or blanket, snuggle puppy, kong, antler, hoof or bone, freeze dried treats, collar and leash set the color of the puppy's ID, personalized bag, and personal items. We proudly spend over $400 on each puppy's new puppy package.
-
The final consideration is your puppy's pedigree. We have dogs with Champion Bloodlines which the pedigree alone could add hundreds to the price of the puppy. For individual pricing quotes based on pedigrees please contact me and ask about the specific dogs you're in question of.
​
So, now knowing this information, where do we total at? A base price of over $3,200. Our prices start at $2,000 for the highest quality wooly Siberian husky puppy at the most affordable price.
The CTK Puppy Process
So how does the process work?
​
You'll first submit your Waitlist application, if you're approved, you'll then be added to the general wait list. When a pregnancy is confirmed by our reproductive veterinarian, we will then go down the General wait list in order to select only four applicants to place reservations on the Private wait list. The reservation fee for a place on the Private wait list is $500. This also acts as a deposit to hold your puppy for you.
Once you have been chosen for the Private wait list you get a number between 1 and 4. This is the order in which you will all pick your puppies at six weeks of age. I will assess each puppy's temperament at 4, 6, and 8 weeks of age. Families will be given a group of puppies to choose from all having similar personalities that I feel would thrive best in those particular homes. We encourage new families to come participate in an in-person puppy picking experience though we completely understand not everyone has the ability. We can also do puppy picking over an assortment of video chat options! On pickup day the remaining total is due, though if you'd rather stretch these out into payments from the time you place your deposit until it's time for your puppy to come home, we can do that as well!
Stud fees, breed and board, and prolonged puppy stays
​
Stud Fees: Stud fees vary depending on the stud of your choice. CTK's Sterling Archer's stud fee is the price of one of his offspring on full registration; $1000. Evander's stud fee is similar, also being the same price as one of his offspring on full registration; $2000. This is if he passes his health testing. We do not offer pick of the litter in leu of stud fee any longer with the exception of special offers. On occasion we will offer free stud services as giveaways or offer stud services in exchange for pick of the litter of stud's retirement litters.
​
Breed and board: We're now once again offering breed and board under the following conditions:
- The stud contract is signed, and the fee is paid upfront before any travel plans are made.
- We recommend having your female progesterone tested prior to breeding and a 16 PG or higher.
-$25 a day after the third night.
-Leave a supply of your dog's food and a feeding schedule
- Dam must be up to date on her vaccinations and parasite prevention with a negative brucellosis test.
​
Puppy Stays: We do hold puppies for owners after you've paid if you need time to arrange for travel plans. However, if this time frame exceeds 4 weeks past the point of having paid in full you will be charged $25 a week additional for each week past.
Puppies must be no older than 10 weeks to fly, with a minimum fee of $900 for cross country flight and $2,000 for international.
