If money is not an issue nimo, then I would suggest buy directly to exhibitors/breeders. Pero medyo mahal gyud cla compare sa uban but ur assure nga quality gyud cya.

usually pet quality pups/sibes kay much cheaper kay sa mga breeding/show prospect pups/sibes. usually below 18K ang mga pet quality sibes sa mga exhibitors/breeders diri sa Pinas then ranges from 30K-60K ang mga breeding/show prospect pups. Ang prices here in Cebu is much higher compare sa Manila. Then daghan sad mga lines makit an nmo did2 sa Manila. Likay lng ka sa mga scammers kay medyo nagkadaghan na bya ron labi na online.

If you're looking for a show husky, go to manila. If you are looking for a pet quality, there are a lot of litters coming here in Cebu. You can personally check them kay duol ra man. Kaysa if adto ka sa manila, mas gastos sa plite if you want to check the pup personally. If money is not a problem, it is still practical to buy huskies in Cebu.

Just remember that the term "quality" cannot be found in the pedigree of the dog as far as I am concerned.

A GUIDE TO PURCHASING A SIBERIAN HUSKY

Before you decide to purchase a puppy, ask yourself some questions and consider the following.

*

Can you resist buying the first cute puppy you see on impulse?
*

Are you prepared to make a commitment to a dog for the next 10 - 15 years?
*

Full responsibility for a dog is not a job for children, it requires responsible adult supervision.
*

The commitment is not a small one, training a Siberian Husky to be a pleasant companion requires considerable time and patience. Siberians don't become well behaved all by themselves! They require substantial attention and exercise throughout their lives, they are active and social animals and don't do well if stuck in the backyard and forgotten.
*

Do you have an appropriate environment for a puppy and are you willing to live with puppy mistakes............digging & chewing?
*

Do you have secure, adequate fencing for the adult dog?
*

Are you willing to spend the money it takes to provide appropriate care, including quality food and supplies, annual vaccines, heartworm/intestinal worm prevention, emergency veterinary care and spaying or neutering?
*

Are you willing to wait for the right puppy from the responsible breeder of your choice? Remember, finding the best puppy for you is well worth the wait.

BUY A WELL BRED DOG FROM A RESPONSIBLE BREEDER

*

Responsible breeders take care to produce healthy, typical Siberian Huskies with good temperaments. Don't bargain hunt!! Avoid buying a puppy from a pet store or a puppy farm. Often these puppies come from poor breeding, may have been kept in poor conditions with inadequate socialisation, and are sometimes more expensive than puppies purchased from an ethical, responsible breeder.
*

Responsible breeders do all they can to avoid producing serious problems, including aggressive or shy temperaments, hereditary health defects such as hip problems or early blindness from hereditary eye diseases. Remember that "Pedigree Papers" are not an indication of quality in the dog. They only mean that the dog's parents were Pedigree Registered.

HOW DO I KNOW A BREEDER IS RESPONSIBLE?

A responsible Siberian Husky breeder is one that breeds solely for the betterment of the breed and not for financial gain or to meet the increasing demand for Siberian puppies. The size of the kennel, the amount of advertising and the number of litters produced are in no way an indication of the quality of service and breeding stock. It is important to base your decision of a breeder's respectability on your own knowledge, questions and observations.

Look for a breeder who:

*

Is knowledgeable about the breed. Most responsible Siberian breeders continually test the results of their breeding programs by participating in conformation shows, obedience trials, or sled racing.
*

Is knowledgeable about raising puppies. Even puppies with the best hereditary temperaments can exhibit behavioral problems if they are not socialised sufficiently or if they are removed from their dam and littermates before eight weeks of age. Socialisation done by the breeder should include ensuring that each pup receives frequent human attention, is handled frequently, and is exposed to a wide variety of noises and experiences.
*

Takes steps to keep the puppies as healthy as possible. Before puppies go to their new homes, they should have been wormed and should have received their first vaccinations.
*

Takes steps to prevent occurrence of hereditary defects in the puppies. Both parents should have hip clearances from the AVA (Australian Veterinarian Association). Both parents should have current eye clearances from a Veterinary Ophthalmologists. Eye exams must be performed every year. Be sure to ask about health clearances, responsible breeders will be happy to tell you about them and will honestly discuss problems that might occur in the parents' lines. Avoid breeders that tell you their dogs don't need health clearances because they've never had a problem, or those who tell you that their "vet said the dog was OK". Remember that clearances on the parents don't guarantee that the puppies will be free of problems, but your chances of buying a healthy puppy are greatly improved if the parents have been cleared.
*

Does not breed bitches every time they come in season. This is extremely hard on the bitch and may indicate that profit is the breeder's primary motive.
*

Chooses breeding carefully. Ask why the particular sire was chosen. The answer should be thoughtful and knowledgeable. Answers such as "because he lives close to me" or "because he's such a cute dog" generally don't indicate a breeding that is being done to produce puppies that are better than their parents (the goal of every responsible breeder).
*

Lets you meet the parents of the puppies. Bitches may be sent long distances to stud dogs, but the breeder should be able to show you photographs of the sire and answer questions about him.
*

Evaluates puppy temperaments and helps you choose the puppy that is best suited to your lifestyle. A very active puppy won't do well in a sedate environment and a quiet puppy may be overwhelmed in an active household. Remember that most breedings are done so the breeder can choose a puppy to carry on his or her own lines, so you may have to wait until this choice is made when the pups are 7-8 weeks old. After that, the breeder can help you decide which pup would be most suitable for you. The breeder has spent extensive time with the litter and knows the puppies best, so their advice is important.
*

Will be willing to take the dog back at any time if you cannot keep it. Responsible breeders DO NOT want their puppies to end up in an animal shelter or in a LESS THAN IDEAL HOME.
*

Is someone you feel comfortable with. You may not be an expert on Siberian Huskies, but you do know about people. Use your intuition. The breeder should be available for the life of the dog to answer questions, so this could be a long-term relationship. If you don't trust a person, don't buy a dog from them.
*

Will provide appropriate documentation with the puppy, including registration papers and a health record.
*

Is concerned about your future plans for the puppy, particularly whether you're thinking of breeding the dog. Many responsible breeders sell "pet quality" puppies with mandatory spay / neuter contracts and/or Limited Registration (meaning that offspring of the dog cannot be registered). This is a good indication that the breeder cares enough about the breed to ensure that only the very best representatives of the breed are bred from. Some breeders may be willing to change Limited registration to a Full registration if you present the dog to them after maturity, having had all its health clearances. If the breeder thinks the dog is of good quality and temperament, they may change the registration and help you with the selection of a good stud dog. Only the dog's breeder can make this change.
*

Is checking you out too? A responsible breeder will ask you questions about you and your home to ensure you are suitable for one of their Siberian Husky puppies? They will take time with you and show a real interest in you and your questions? The breeder wants their puppy placed in loving, responsible home. They are careful about who buys their puppies, so as the new owner, prepare yourself for some questions from the breeder. Don't expect a responsible breeder to sell you a Siberian Husky puppy over the internet just because you say you want one!

HOW DO I FIND A RESPONSIBLE BREEDER?

*

First, educate yourself. Read books on the breed. Attend dog shows and talk to the Siberian Husky exhibitors. Be willing to spend some time on the phone, talking to breeders and looking for referrals. Most responsible breeders will have a list of puppy buyers before they do a breeding and usually don't have to advertise in the newspaper.
*

Please remember that the great majority of breeders are hobby breeders. They are not "in business", breeding is not their profession, and very few of them make money on their dogs.

CHOOSING A PUPPY

Show records of parents and other relatives and of previous progeny can be used to help form opinions, but you must also know what you are looking at. You must decide if you want a household pet, a dog for breeding or and showing. Would you prefer a Male or Female, Puppy or Adult? All puppies are irresistible, the more litters and breeders you inspect, the better idea you will form of what is good and of what you want.

1. Are the puppies registered with an ANKC affiliate or the equivalent in other countries. Ask to view the parents registration papers.

2. Can you meet the dam of the puppies? (and ideally the sire). How do they behave? Are they in control and sensible and of the nature you would like? It is most suspicious if the dam is unable to be seen. Don't be too critical of the dam's appearance at this stage she will usually be out of coat and not at her best. If so ask to see photos.

3. Have the puppies been vaccinated and regularly wormed? Ask if you can see their vaccination and worming records.

4. Check to see that the puppies are clean and relatively free of fleas, with no lice or other parasites.

5. Their ears should be clean with no discharge. Eyes should be clean with no pussy discharge. Look for lumps around the belly area. This could mean a hernia. Some hernias disappear as the pup grows although others may require surgery. Overall, do the puppies look bright and healthy.

6. Look not only at a puppy, but the litter as a whole. Purchasing a puppy from a poor litter could be a risky proposition.

7. Are there signs that the owner has interacted with the puppies during the early days, not just left alone with the dam in some secluded spot. Siberians are not timid and should respond cheerfully when engaged into play.

8. When evaluating an 8 week old Siberian puppy, look first at its overall appearance, bearing in mind that a growing puppy is likely to appear awkward and out of balance due to different skeletal areas growing at different rates. It should appear vigorous and plump (not bloated, indicating worm infestation). It should move effortlessly and be quite active. A slight variation in size among litter mates and between the sexes is normal, and the largest puppy should not be deemed most desirable simply on this account.

9. What is your general impression? Are the dogs well housed and fed, happy and confident.

It is easy to place emphasis on minor technicalities and overlook the animal as a whole. Is the puppy pleasing to the eye? Type, balance, soundness, movement and temperament should be the fundamental considerations in choosing your puppy.

It is common for puppies, from the same litter, to be sold at two different prices. Conscientious breeders strive to maintain those desirable qualities in the breed. At the same time they are always working to improve on what they have already achieved, and they do this by, referring to The Breed Standard. The standard describes the ideal Siberian Husky, and those animals that come close to the ideal are generally selected as show stock. Those that do not are sold as pets. Pet quality purebred dogs are in no way less healthy or attractive than the show quality puppies. Naturally the more perfect animal, in the terms of the breed standard, will cost more, even though he might seem identical to his pet quality littermate.

I think the reason mahal ang dog diri sa cebu because they make sure that the pups and the dam were taken cared of. if ngadto ka sa manila daghan kaayo barato. kay nagkadamak ang mang breeday ngadto then dispose lang nila pup without considering kinsa mo palit mostly to cover there expenses once maka pick na cla nindot dispose dayon na ang uban quesera sera sera dayon and barato pa gyud. Eventhough cebu peps some dili kaayo nindot ang dog but based on my survey ang mga gipakaon nga mga food diri sa cebu mga premium dog food kasagaran dili basta2 because they consider first health sa dog and kung kinsa makakuha.Doesnt matter kung bati or dili basta healthy and make sure matake care gyud sa mo palit. Kay kasagaran taw diri gusto gyud mo nindot ila dog. doesnt matter kung pang show cya or dili basta as long as healthy and they have fun with there furballs. Kay kung barato pa ang husky diri lo.oy kaayo daghan makapalit nga ibog2 lang nga basta-bastahon lang kay barato kaayo unya dili diay to gamon. Better mahal basta can make sure ang makapalit and makakaya pag gasto niya incase masakit. were trying to make sure nga ang value sa husky is dili mo depreciate kay kung mo down. goodluck makayamokat gyud tanan husky diri nga lay klaro. kadugyan mura na askal. Hope masabtan sad sa uban ang point.

Dili ma gud ta ka bo.ot sa taw once makakita na cya sa dog. Naa gyud taw nga impulsive samot na kung barato ang puppy. Kung mahal cya maka think twice gyud because they can think that its not just a dog. its a THE DOG.
Kay kung business2 lang huna2 sa taw diri kanang 25k each pup kulang ra na sa kahago. wala pa nay apil ang tanan food and supplements sa pups and ;lahi pa gyud na sa dam. That I can assure because nka experience ko. Dili lalim sad ang magbreed mao dili sad unta magbo.ot2 ang uban ug storya kung how the breeder sell there pups. Because one thing for sure they have there own reasons and kana na reason is mostly kuwang ra sa price sa litter.

FYI

The prices I gave are the prices from the EXHIBITORS/BREEDERS. This exhibitors/breeders who pay dogshow entry,handling fee,import dogs and most especially giving the best care for their dogs.

I didnt mention anything in specific if pila inyong prices sa inyong pups since inyuha na rights. I only gave the prices from the exhibitor/breeders I know nga nagsell ug siberian husky pups. I also posted some tips on buying a siberian husky pup.
