FAQs

How much does a Stabyhoun puppy cost?

In the UK, a Stabyhoun puppy typically costs around £1,500, while importing one from the Netherlands may cost between €950 and €1,500. Prices in Denmark range from approximately 11,000 to 12,000 DKK. In the United States, the average price can be higher, around $4,000, reflecting the breed's rarity and limited availability.

Are Stabyhouns good family dogs?

Yes, Stabyhouns make excellent family dogs. They are loyal, affectionate, and show a friendly temperament, though they may be wary of strangers. They tend to form strong bonds with their families, are good watchdogs, and generally have a balanced temperament suited for family life.

Why are Stabyhouns considered rare?

Stabyhouns are rare primarily due to their origin in the Friesland region of the Netherlands and limited breeding programs worldwide. There are only about 112 breeders in North America producing very few litters annually. The breed is also not fully recognised by major kennel clubs like the AKC, contributing to its rarity and limited availability outside Europe.

Do Stabyhouns bark a lot?

Stabyhouns do not bark excessively; they typically bark an average amount and mainly use barking as an alert or protective signal when perceiving a threat. This behaviour makes them excellent watchdogs without being overly noisy, suitable for family environments.
