Factors Affecting the Silky Terrier Price in India

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

Type

There are three different price categories for a Silky Terrier 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 Silky Terrier 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

The Silky Terriers are available in a lot of different colors such as Black & Gold, Silver & Tan, Grey & Tan, Blue & Tan, Silver Black & Tan et cetera and based on the rarity of these coat colors, the overall price of these canines might vary. The rarer the color of the coat, the higher might be the price of these pooches.

Age & Gender

It is usually seen that male canines are sold at a bit of a higher price as compared to female dogs. Also, it is a well-known thing that young dogs and puppies cost way more when we compare their price to older pooches.

Pure or Mix Breed

The cost of a purebred Silky Terrier 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

Canines that are not that easily available in a region tend to cost more than the pooches that are readily available in that region. But in case of Silky Terriers, these pooches have a mediocre availability in several parts of this country, still the overall price of these canines is not that high especially considering it is an exotic breed.

Reputed Breeder

It is also quite common for the Popular or reputed breeders to sell canines at a bit of a higher price as compared to those breeders who are not as well-known as them. This again influences the overall price of a dog in an area.

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.
