Adopting a Schipperke

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

You can adopt a Schipperke for much less than buying one from a breeder. The cost of adopting a Schipperke is around $300 in order to cover the expenses of caring for the dog before adoption. But buying Schipperkes from breeders can run anywhere from $800 to $1,200.

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