Do you think a Shih Tzu with a price of P6,300 ($145) is ok? It is overpriced or a bit lower? I don't have any idea about dog price since i'm planning to buy a dog. By the way here's the link for the dog: http://www.ayosdito.ph/Shih+Tzu+mixed+Terrier-2256205.htm

Normally a pure breed Shih Tzu with PCCI papers around 2-3months old is P10,000-12,000. but since the dog your referring to is not of pure breed and has no PCCI papers i guess the price is right but it doesnt harm if you can still haggle a lower price around P6000-P5500. Btw pls ask if the dog has already given vaccines?

Thanks. I guess p6000 would be ok since it seems to had vaccinated.

Hi Jacruz! I don't have any idea about dog prices, too. The last time I heard about Shih Tzu price was about 3K and that was a few years ago. It's been my long time desire to have a Shih Tzu dog, ever since I saw one back in 2003. I was still a student then and I couldn't afford an expensive dog like that. Until now, I still think it would be impractical to get an expensive dog. Not just because of the expensive buying price but also because it's a high maintenance dog, which means you'll be spending a lot of money in taking care of it. Anyway, if you can afford it as well as the maintenance, then go for it!

Shih tzu prices depends on the breed. The less cross breed the more expensive it is.

I think 6,300 is quite overpriced for a crossbreed shih tzu. 5,900 up to 6,000 price reasonable enough.

Ok thanks. So I'll try to talk to the owner if we can make the price lower. I really have no idea about dog price. P6,000 would be enough then I guess.

Well where I live a Shih Tzu ranges anywhere from $200-$2000. It really just depends on where you get them from and how much the owner decides to sale them for. I think that with this dog being a mixed breed it is over priced. You could adopt the same type of dog for under $100
