Puppies for Sale in Arizona

Sadly, Arizona doesn't actually have an official state dog as some other states do!

Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your home in Arizona? You can expect a puppy cost can range anywhere from $1,000 to $2,500 depending on the breed, the breeder's reputation, and various genetic factors.

In the state of Arizona, breeders have a general rule that puppies must be at least eight weeks old before they can leave their mother. It's vital for their early socialization and emotional development.

Differentiating between a backyard breeder and a reputable breeder largely comes down to how they manage their breeding practices. Unethical breeders often treat their dogs like commodities with bare minimum care; whereas reputable breeders, registered with organizations like the AKC or ACA, focus on the dog's health, temperament, and adherence to breed standards.

Finding a reputable breeder near you isn't as daunting as it may appear. You can browse our available puppies from reputable breeders by entering your Zip code, or simply use the American Kennel Club (AKC) search tool to locate a responsible breeder in your area.

When it comes to breeding laws in Arizona, there are some guidelines in place to protect our furry friends. Breeding facilities must be licensed and adhere to specific animal and health welfare standards. Otherwise, they could face penalties.
