Adopting a Leonberger

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

You can adopt a Leonberger at a much lower cost than buying one from a breeder. The cost to adopt a Leonberger is around $300 in order to cover the expenses of caring for the dog before adoption. In contrast, buying Leonbergers from breeders can be prohibitively expensive. Depending on their breeding, they usually cost anywhere from $1,500 to $2,500.

The easiest way to adopt a Leonberger would be through a rescue that specializes in Leonbergers. A great place to start is by starting a breed search on Adopt a Pet. The search will show you all the available Leonbergers in your area.

Leonberger fun facts

Fun Facts:

Leonbergers are one of the few dimorphic dog breeds, which means that the males look strikingly different than the females.

World War II nearly led to the extinction of the Leonberger breed, but were luckily revived by breed fanciers in Europe and the United States.

Their gigantic size be darned -- Leonbergers love to swim!
