    Price of Puli by Registered/registerable

    The average price of a Puli puppy that comes with registration papers is $1600, while the average price of a Puli puppy without registration papers is $370.

    We obtained this price information from our price breakdown of 6 Puli puppies with registration papers that were listed for sale and 3 Puli puppies without registration papers that were listed for sale.

    There is no real difference in the price of Puli puppy with registration papers and a puppy without registration papers.


    Dog clubs such as the American Kennel Club (AKC) in the USA provide dog registration papers. However, in addition to the AKC, there are other dog clubs in the USA and in other countries. Some of these dog clubs are:

  • American Kennel Club (United States)
  • United Kennel Club (International)
  • The Kennel Club (United Kingdom)
  • Canadian Kennel Club
  • Continental Kennel Club
  • United All Breed Registry
  • International Canine Association
  • Fédération Cynologique Internationale (International)


  • One purpose of dog registration papers is for keeping track of the breeding history, the ownership history, and the heritage history of a dog.

    For example, for a dog to have AKC papers, its parents must have AKC papers. Therefore, you can be very sure that a dog is purebred if it is AKC registerable, or if it comes with AKC registration papers.

    Note that not all dog registries keep as much record of a dog`s history as the AKC. So, if a breeder claims that a puppy comes with registration papers, always check with the breeder to find out what type of registration paper the puppy has.

    In addition to its use for keeping records, registration papers also make you and your dog eligible to participate in events organized by dog clubs. Such events include dog shows and other fun dog events.

    Note that the AKC only allows purebred dogs to be registered in its traditional registry. Mixed-breed/hybrid dogs are recognized by the AKC but they cannot be registered in AKC`s traditional registry.

    A puppy from a champion bloodline carries the genes of champions in him or her. Therefore, this puppy has the potential to be a champion dog too.

    If you plan to show your dog in dog conformation shows, and you want your puppy to stand a good chance in the show ring, then you should consider buying a puppy from a champion bloodline. Preferably, buy a puppy whose immediate parents are champions.

    If you plan to keep your puppy as a pet with no plans to show your dog in dog conformation shows, then you should not worry about buying a puppy that comes from a champion bloodline.

    Where to Buy Pulis. Established Puli Breeders in the United States

    Visit this page to see our list of reputable Puli breeders. These breeders are from the American Kennel Club (AKC) marketplace.

    Breeders on the AKC marketplace tend to be reputable breeders. However, there could still be a few not-too-good breeders on the AKC marketplace. Therefore, do your own research before picking a breeder.

    You can also find good breeders on puppy websites such as puppyfind.com and nextdaypets.com. However, you need to be very careful when buying a puppy from these websites so as not to fall in the hands of scammers.

    When buying a puppy, make sure you do your due diligence not to buy a puppy from a puppy mill. Puppy mills breed puppies in large numbers in bad living conditions for the puppies. Puppy mill owners do not care about the puppies. They only care about making money selling puppies.

    Genuine breeders care more about breeding healthy puppies than making money. When looking for a breeder, choose a well-established breeder that has been breeding puppies for a long time. Breeders that have been breeding puppies for a long time are more trustworthy. These breeders breed puppies for the love of dogs, and not to make money.
