Chow Chow is a fluffy bear-looking dog that is famous all around the world for its looks and beautiful coat. It was known as Songshi Quan in northern China which meant a puffy-lion dog. One more distinct feature that Chows have which differentiates them from other breeds is their blue-black spotted tongue. This is a very unique feature that these dogs have and because of these reasons (their distinct looks and characteristics), Chow Chows have been gradually climbing the ladder of popularity all over the world.

In India, Chows have a mediocre availability and demand though. These dogs are not as common in the Indian households as some other breeds are. Chow Chows do not have a very good tolerance to heat and high temperatures and they can be a bit pricey too. Also, these dogs are not very adaptable in nature. But they can be a decent choice for anyone if they are treated with love and affection and they are given proper protection and care especially during the summer season (in India).

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

  • Chow Chow Puppy price (Basic): ₹30,000 to ₹50,000
  • Chow Chow Puppy price (KCI registered): ₹55,000 to ₹70,000
  • Chow Chow Puppy price (Show Quality): ₹75,000 to ₹1,20,000


The price of this breed may also vary from breeder to breeder but you will have to find a trusted and a good breeder to get it from. This breed is not that common and thus many breeders in the country are not able to provide it to the potential dog-parents and dog admirers. Its availability is limited and therefore, it is all the more important that you get this pooch from a trusted source only. A reliable breeder can be of great help when searching for a canine as he/she can provide you with valuable advice and information regarding the breed you are interested in and the quality of the dog that you ultimately decide to bring home is also ensured. Hence, you should always focus on getting the desired pup from a trustworthy source and should never compromise on the quality of the dog or the breeder.

Factors Affecting the Chow Chow dog Price in India

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

Type

There are three different price categories for a Chow Chow 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 Chow Chow puppy can cost anywhere around ₹30,000.
  • 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 of a dog can have a major impact on its overall price. As Chow Chows are mainly found in two types of coats i.e. Smooth and Rough, a breeder can charge differently for each of these two coats. Also, coat color can again influence the Chow Chow dog price in India. Chow Chows are mostly found in Cream, Red, and Fawn colored coats, but as they are also available in some other rare colors such as Blue and Black, their price can change depending on the rarity of the colors in which they are found in.

Age & Gender

Generally, male puppies or male dogs are sold at a higher price than the female canines. Hence, the gender of a dog also plays a big role in determining its price in a region. Also, it is quite well known that young dogs and puppies usually cost more to bring home than old and fully grown dogs which means that age is also a crucial factor that can influence the price of a dog.

Pure or Mix Breed

The cost of a purebred Chow Chow 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

Those breeds that are easily available in an area generally cost less than those who are a bit hard to find. As Chows Chows have a mediocre availability in India, this dog will be a bit cheaper to bring home in those regions where its availability is decent as compared to those areas where it is not very easily found.

Also, if a dog is bought from an area which is close to your home, then its price should be lower as compared to the canine that is bought from a place which is far away from where you live (a different state) and it is due to the additional charges such as traveling and shipping charges which add on to the overall cost of the dog.

Reputed Breeder

Usually, reputed and popular breeders are known to sell dogs and puppies at a price that is higher than the breeders who are not as popular or well-known as them. But because buying a puppy from a trusted and reputed breeder generally means you are getting a healthy and fully fit dog, therefore, people don't usually mind spending a little extra money on their future furry friends.

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.
