Puppies for Sale in Arkansas

Fun fact - for those who have a flair for local pride, Arkansas doesn't actually have a designated state dog. What breed do you think would best represent this state's diversity and spirit?

The price varies considerably depending on the breed and the breeder. However, generally, a puppy can cost anywhere from $1,000 to $3,000 or more.

In Arkansas, much like everywhere else, a puppy should ideally stay with its mother until it's at least eight weeks old. This time allows for vital social development with its mom and siblings. This early period is crucial for puppy development!

Reputable breeders adhere to breed standards, typically hold recognitions from organizations like the AKC, and prioritize the health and well-being of their animals. Backyard breeders, on the other hand, may show less concern for these crucial aspects and instead focus more on profits.

Locating a good breeder in your area might take a little bit of diligence. You could browse our available puppies by Zip code, ask your veterinarian or groomer for recommendations, or even check if anyone in your circle of friends and family has recently welcomed a furry friend into their home. Doing this will help ensure that you're supporting responsible breeding.

As far as dog breeding laws are concerned, Arkansas requires breeders to be licensed if they own three or more intact females and sell over thirty dogs per year. So if you’re looking at a breeder, make sure to check their credentials to ensure they’re operating within legal boundaries.
