Being a pureblood Doberman pincher dog breeder, you will no doubt have some litters of Doberman pinscher puppies that you will have to sell. There is quite a-lot involved in the raising and selling of this breed of canine. You cannot just simply place ads and sell these puppies to the first buyer. You must use caution and there are things that you are required to do before you begin selling your puppies. After the puppies are, weaned from the mother Doberman, you will have to take the puppies to the veterinarian and have the puppies vaccinated and have their first worming. The veterinarian will give all of these things to the puppies to get them ready for their new homes and owners. You may also have to set up an appointment to have the puppies ears cropped, and the tails of the puppies docked.

The surgical procedures; are done by the veterinarian to physically, alter the appearance of the puppies. These procedures give the Doberman a much more distinguished looking appearance. The cropping of the ears shapes the ears and then the ears are, held up to make the ears stand erect. The docking the tail was done to keep the tail out of the way of the Dobermans hunting in the past and is still done today even if the dog does not work. These procedures are expensive and some new owners will want these procedures done before they take the possession of the Doberman puppies. This is the responsibility of the breeder to make sure that you have good quality puppies at a reasonable price. However, you can recover the expenses that you are out on the veterinarian bills, shots and surgeries.

Just figure up how much you spent on each puppy to have all of this done. You take the number of puppies say you have four puppies. The veterinarian bills totaled and the expenses you paid. Example below:

Veterinarian Bill Shots and wormer
Total $54.00
Veterinarian Bill Surgical Procedures
Total $2200.00
Over all total
$2254.00
Divided by 4 =
$563.50, per each puppy
Therefore, you would need to charge a total of $565.00 or more to collect the expenses you are out and then if you wish to make some profit from the sale you can add more onto the total sale price of the puppies. You will also need to add more if you have to pay for any registration papers on the puppies as well. However, it is about the puppies being placed in good, loving, homes not about the money. There is also the advertising and advertising cost you will probably not be able to consider this as a part of the sale of the puppies. Most of the time, this is an expense that you will have to bare in order to sell the puppies. However, it is a necessary expense if you wish to get good buyers for the puppies. You want to talk with the potential owners and make sure they can provide good homes for these puppies. It is your responsibility to screen the potential owners. This is all part of being a responsible owner and breeder.
