Factors Affecting the Rough Collie Price in India

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

Type

There are three different price categories for a Rough Collie 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 Rough Collie puppy can cost anywhere around ₹25,000.
• 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 features such as coat color of a canine or texture of the coat can influence its overall price. In case of Rough Collies, these dogs are found in a lot of different coat colors which are - Blue Merle, Blue Merle and White, Sable, Sable and White, White Merle, Black White & Tan and based on the rarity of the coat color, the price of this breed may vary. The rarer the coat color, the higher might be the price of these dogs.

Age & Gender

Generally, puppies and younger dogs cost a bit more than the older or full-grown dogs. Also, male pooches tend to cost more when compared to the female canines. And this is how, age and gender play a role in influencing the overall price of a pooch.

Pure or Mix Breed

The cost of a purebred Rough Collie 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 easily available in a location tend to cost less compared to the pooches who are not that easily available. As Rough Collies have an above average availability in several parts of this country, the overall price of these pooches also hovers around medium to high ranges. In some places, these dogs are available at a reasonable price while at other places, they can be a bit expensive to bring home.

Reputed Breeder

Canines that you get from a reputed and popular breeder also tend to cost more when compared to pooches who are bought from a smaller or not-so popular breeder.

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.
