Adopting a Afghan Hound

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

You can adopt an Afghan Hound at a much lower cost than buying one from a breeder. The cost to adopt an Afghan Hound is typically $50 to $300, which covers the expenses of caring for them before adoption. Adoption fees typically include a basic health exam, microchipping, parasite prevention and treatment, spay/neuter, and vaccines.

In contrast, buying Afghan Hounds from breeders can be prohibitively expensive. Depending on their breeding, they can cost $1,000 to $3,500.

The easiest way to adopt an Afghan Hound is through a rescue that specializes in this elegant and less common breed. A great place to start is with a breed search on Adopt a Pet. The search will show you all the available Afghan Hounds in your area.
