Adopting a Finnish Lapphund

Frequently asked questions about acquiring an Finnish Lapphund - the pros and cons of adopting versus going through a breeder, and associated costs.

You can adopt a Finnish Lapphund at a much lower cost than buying one from a breeder. The cost to adopt a Finnish Lapphund is typically $50 to $300, which covers the expenses of caring for the dog before adoption. Most rescue and shelter adoption fees include a basic exam, parasite treatment and preventatives, spay/neuter, and microchipping. 

In contrast, buying Finnish Lapphunds from breeders can be prohibitively expensive. Depending on their breeding, they usually cost $1,000 to $2,500, while imported puppies can cost up to $5,000.

The easiest way to adopt a Finnish Lapphund is through a rescue that specializes in this breed and other Spitz-type dogs. While they are popular across Nordic countries, Finnish Lapphunds are much less common in North America, so you may need to spend some time browsing various rescues. A great place to start looking for this less common breed is with a breed search on Adopt a Pet. The search will show you all the available Finnish Lapphunds in your area.
