Adopting a Norwegian Lundehund

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

You can adopt a Norwegian Lundehund at a much lower cost than buying one from a breeder. The cost of adopting a Norwegian Lundehund from a shelter is typically $50 to $300, while smaller rescues may charge higher fees. This adoption fee often includes a basic exam, preventatives, vaccines, microchipping, and spay/neuter. 

In contrast, buying a Norwegian Lundehund from a breeder can be prohibitively expensive. Depending on their breeding, they can cost $2,000 to $4,000.

The easiest way to adopt a Norwegian Lundehund is through a rescue that specializes in Norwegian Lundehunds or Nordic breeds in general. This is an extremely rare breed, and finding one to adopt outside of their home region may prove quite difficult. A great place to start is with a breed search on Adopt a Pet, which will show you all the available Norwegian Lundehunds in your search radius.
