It’s about that time again, 3 years after my pug passed away (whom this site was created for), it’s time for me to get a new pug puppy 🥰.
I’ll be updating my posts on this website as I raise my new pup, starting with my guide on How Much Do Pugs Cost?
Thinking about adopting or buying a pug and you want to know about how much a pug costs?
It’s a big decision, getting a pug is almost like having a kid.
Pugs have become increasingly popular over the past few years, which has lead to a price surge. Back when I bought Benji in 2010 (aka the Notorious PUG) from a reputable breeder, the going rate was about $500.
Now the average price for a pug is about $1000-$2000 for a puppy, and usually under $500 to rescue a pug. They’ll cost about $2000 in the first year, and about $1500 a year after that. This includes various things like dog food, toys, treats, vet bills (or pet insurance), grooming and more.
