ANATOLIAN SHEPHERD DOG PRICE IN INDIA 

The Anatolian Shepherds are large, muscular and highly powerful canines that hail from Turkey. These dogs are very loving and protective of their close ones and they are known for their exceptional guarding abilities. These pooches have a bold and confident personality and they can be a bit independent sometimes, that’s why they are mostly recommended to experienced dog parents only who can train and handle these canines efficiently.

The Anatolian Shepherds under the guidance of a skilled dog parent are known to make fairly decent pets. These pooches are very affectionate and protective of their loved ones. Their maintenance needs are very manageable. They have a good tolerance to both high and low temperatures which means they can be raised in most parts of the world without any issues. And finally, their watchdog ability is really good. But the overall demand and availability of these dogs is pretty subpar in India and there are a few reasons that might tell us why these pooches have a low demand in the country. First, they are not very apartment-friendly in nature. Second, they are not highly recommended to novice dog parents as they can be a bit challenging to handle and train. And lastly, these pooches are a bit pricey to bring home and then maintain properly.

Given below is the average price list of the Anatolian Shepherd puppies which are available in various variations.

• Anatolian Shepherd Puppy price (Basic): ₹35,000 to ₹45,000
• Anatolian Shepherd Puppy price (KCI registered): ₹45,000 to ₹60,000
• Anatolian Shepherd Puppy price (Show Quality): ₹60,000 to ₹1,00,000

If you are thinking of bringing home an Anatolian Shepherd puppy and you want to get this canine from a breeder, then it is very important that you get it only from a trusted breeder. A good breeder will not only provide a fit and healthy canine to you but he will also share valuable and necessary details and tips with you regarding the needs and maintenance of the pup that you are interested in. Also, the pup’s quality and fitness would already be certified by various kennel clubs if you get it from a reputable breeder. And, therefore, for the betterment of both you and the canine you want to raise as a pet, you should try to get it only from a reliable breeder.

Factors Affecting the Anatolian Shepherd Price in India

Now there are various factors that can affect the original Anatolian Shepherd price in India. These factors are as follows:

Type

There are three different price categories for an Anatolian Shepherd dog (in India): Basic, KCI Registered and Show Quality.

• Basic category includes all those dogs and puppies that are not registered to any kennel club including KCI. A basic Anatolian Shepherd puppy can cost anywhere around ₹35,000.
• KCI is short for Kennel Club of India and if a dog belongs to KCI Registered category, then it means you will get a canine whose quality is up to the mark. You will also be able to participate in KCI dog shows if your canine is registered and also you will get a KCI registration certificate.
• A Show Quality dog means that the canine is closest to the ideal as mentioned in the Breed Standards. If you are not planning to participate in dog shows with your pooch, then it does not matter all that much whether you buy a Show Quality dog or a Normal Pet Quality one.

Physical Attributes and Characteristics

Physical characteristics such as different colors of the coat or different length of the coat can also influence the overall price of a canine. In case of Anatolian Shepherds, these dogs can have a lot of different coat colors such as Biscuit & White, Blue Fawn, Brindle, Fawn, Liver, Red Fawn, White and based on how rare these coat colors are, the overall price of these canines may vary.

Also, these dogs can have two different kinds of coat where one type of coat is shorter than the other type and this again can affect the overall price of this canine. The two types of coats that the Anatolian Shepherds are found in are Short Coat (length – 1 cm) and Rough Coat (length – 4 cm).

Age & Gender

Young dogs and pups are generally sold at a higher price as compared to old or fully-grown canines. Also, it is seen a lot of times that male dogs are sold at a bit of a higher cost as compared to their female counterparts.

Pure or Mix Breed

The cost of a purebred Anatolian Shepherd is higher than the mixed-breed as there are lesser chances for a purebred puppy to develop hereditary health problems as compared to the one that is mixed-breed.

Availability and Location

Dogs that are not very easily available in a region tend to cost more compared to the pooches that are readily available in that region. In case of Anatolian Shepherds, these dogs have a subpar availability in the country, thus, their overall price is a bit on the higher side.

Reputed Breeder

Also, it is commonly seen that reputed and popular breeders tend to charge a bit more for a dog compared to other breeders who are not very well-known or reputed like them. This again affects the overall price of a canine.

Miscellaneous Factors

• Champion Bloodline: If a dog belongs to a champion bloodline, meaning any of its predecessors (forefathers) were given the title of Champion in an official dog event, then its price can also go fairly high.
• Microchip: The price of a dog can also increase if it has been microchipped by the KCI. The extremely small pet microchip helps in providing a permanent ID for your pet.
