These Are The World’s Most Expensive Mixed-Breed Dogs

Mixed Between: Dalmatian & Dachshund
Average Price: $2,000-$3,500*

Dachshunds (or Sausage Dogs as they’re sometimes affectionately known) are incredibly expensive to maintain. But when you mix one with a Dalmatian, the price can go even higher, typically north of $3,000. This designer breed is fairly new to the market and not as established as previous couplings.

Usually, the Dalmachshund ends up taking looks from both of its parents. It gets the Dachshund’s unique shape and body structure and the Dalmatian’s black and white spots. The Dalmachshund is usually playful and affectionate, though it is loyal. The Dachshund side might make it a bit stubborn, so early training is a must-do.

They aren’t hypoallergenic, but these fearless little bundles of joy are fairly easy to train and don’t need oozles of space, either. Fill up a bowl with Costco kibble and you’re good to go. 

Mixed Between: Pomeranian & Siberian Husky
Average Price: $1,000-$3,000*

Pomskies aren’t just fun to look at, but they inherit the best attributes of Pomeranians and Siberian Huskies. These little guys might set you back anywhere between $1,000-$3,000 a pop, but they’re energetic companions that never get bored – just make sure you keep them on a lead.

This designer breed of dog is usually pretty healthy, but, as with any cross-bred dog, it might inherit problems from its parents. Pomsky owners report eye problems and hip dysplasia as the two common ailments (if any). Pomsky dogs became popular in 2017 after photos of the cute cross-breed swarmed social media.

As they have a high prey drive, Pomskies do have a tendency to make dashes when you least expect it. They also shed a lot of hair all year around, so it might be wise to invest in a decent pet brush. These are ideal brushes available from Amazon for just a few dollars. 

Mixed Between: Bulldog & Dalmatian
Average Price: $300-$600*

Bulldogs can be fiercely loyal protectors as well as gentle family pets, making them the ideal canine pal. Mix them with a Dalmatian and you’ve got a gorgeously unique puppy that’s sure to stick by your side through thick and then. Surprisingly, this breed isn’t as expensive as you might think.

While buying a Bullmatian isn’t cheap, it’s not horrendously outlandish, either. According to experts, these dogs need lots of space. Bullmatians are also prone to dermatitis and can benefit from special food like Smucker’s Nature Recipe Healthy Skin Dry Dog Food. 

Note that you should make sure the dog is properly socialized from a young age, particularly if it takes after its Dalmatian parent in terms of temperament. Dalmatians have somewhat of a bad reputation because they have a tendency to be aggressive—but, that is usually only if they are trained improperly.

Mixed Between: Boston Terrier & Miniature Pinscher
Average Price: $500*

With their large, pointed ears and inquisitive stars, Bospin dogs are canines after our own hearts. Not only do they look great, but tend to have very few issues healthwise so you won’t have to worry about any standard conditions that might be costly.

The Bospin is another breed that counts as a “designer dog.” The Bospin generally lives from twelve to fifteen years, and it will be obedient and affectionate if it is trained properly. Socialization is also important. How the Bospin will appear depends on which side is stronger: the Min Pin or the Terrier.

According to Breedsy.com, Whole Earth Farms Grain-Free Small Breed Recipe is one of the most affordable and popular types of food for this dog. You can buy a 12 pound bag from Walmart for $10.99, but it’s also available at other retailers at a similar cost that won’t break the bank.

Mixed Between: French Bulldog & Pug
Average Price: $2,000-$2,500*

French Bulldog and Pug mixes are uniquely special. As both breeds are so bouncy it’s only natural that a Frug is energy personified. They’ve become more and more fashionable over the past few years, which might explain why they’re so costly.

Size-wise, the Frug is a smaller dog. It will grow to ten to thirteen inches tall and weigh between fourteen and twenty-eight pounds. Its life span is usually nine to fifteen years. The Frug is surprisingly hardy, but, if it were to have health ailments, it might inherit some of the pug side’s PDE.

However, it doesn’t stop there. Frugs can be expensive to insure, so it’s best to seek out a series of quotes from companies like Progressive, Pets Best, AKC, Trupanion, Figo and more before you settle. Nothing quite compares to the love of a Frug, thoug!

Mixed Between: Shih Tzu & Dachshund
Average Price: $900-$1,200*

If you’re not a fan of pet hair everywhere then a Schweenie might be the perfect companion for you. They don’t typically shed like other breeds and they’re also notoriously friendly and intelligent. Because they’re so smart, they often get sad when they’re left alone for too long – so may not be suited to a home that’s empty a lot of the time.

Both of the parent breeds of the adorable Schweenie are lovable. One is a protective, loyal hunting hound, while the other is a companion breed. This means that your Schweenie will be one of the most loyal friends in your life. The Schweenie has a lifespan of twelve to fifteen years.

According to WagWalking.com, Schweenie’s are happy playing in the garden and don’t necessarily need endless long walks every day. Throwing them a ball you’ve picked up at Costco for a while will help them get the exercise they need. 

Mixed Between: Pitbull & Chihuahua
Average Price: $1,000*

It may be hard to say, but a Pithuahua isn’t hard to love. They’re small, sturdy, and have big pointy ears that simply demand to be nuzzled. While they certainly have the potential to get overly excited, Pithuahuas are generally calm and love to relax on the couch. They’re also great with kids, making them solid family pets.

Note that socialization is very, very important for this breed. Both breeds have a reputation for aggressiveness (though the Pitbull is far more intimidating, looks-wise), so firm training is necessary. The Pithuahua is usually small- or medium-sized, standing twelve to eighteen inches tall and weighing anywhere from fifteen to thirty-five pounds.

For the times when Pithuahuas are exhibiting the crazier side of their personalities, calming treats can work well – such as PetNaturals of Vermont’s bite-sized chews. These retail at stores like Walmart for just $4.52. Plug ins are also available that can help make them feel more relaxed in their home environment. 

Mixed Between: Husky & Pitbull
Average Price: $500-$2,000*

What do you get when you cross a Husky with a Pitbull? A Pitsky! This mix needs a lot of walking as they have tons of energy to spare. They love attention and affection as much as the next dog, if not more so. Plus if you’re an allergy-sufferer that usually has to pop a Glaxo Smith Kline’s Piriton tablets before petting a pooch, a Pitsky could be a great choice.

They don’t shed much and their short coats mean they aren’t particularly high maintenance either. If you’re into running, then a Pitsky can make a perfect dog to take along with you as they need a good two-hour stretch each day.

Pitsky dogs live from twelve to fifteen years, and, talent-wise, they are jacks of all trades. The PItsky is a good hunter, guard-dog, and sled-dog, likely due to both of its parents’ active natures. The Pitsky needs a fast-paced, active lifestyle. It is prone to boredom if it doesn’t get enough exercise.

Mixed Between: Corgi & Dalmatian
Average Price: $400-$2,000*

Corgis are, quite simply, adorable. Dalmatians are also adorable. Mix them together and you get a Cormation: a bundle of fluffy cuteness that the world just needs more of. You don’t see many of this type of dog on the streets, which is a crying shame. The average Cormatian costs anywhere between $400-$2,000, but they live for 12 to 15 years. 

Cormatian @dpsllc / Twitter.com

Described as a sweet and playful dog with a good temperment, a Cormatian could be a great way to spend your hard earned cash. They may not land a part in Disney’s 101 Dalmatians, but let’s face it – they deserve a feature of their own. 

Corgis are very persistent and determined, and they are known for their tenaciousness (as well as their short legs). Dalmatians are also bad at listening, so this cross-breed will need firm training and socialization. Don’t be afraid to say no and put your foot down, no matter how cute they are.

Mixed Between: Husky & Corgi
Average Price: $300-$700*

A Horgi might have a strange sounding name, but they just might be the cutest thing on four legs ever to roam the Earth. A mix between a Siberian Husky and a Corgi (aka Queen Elizabeth’s favorite breed) these dogs look more like miniature huskies than anything else. 

Horgi @kroniksan / Twitter.com

When you cross-breed a dog, you are likely getting qualities from both of the parents. For example, a Siberian Husky is playful, dramatic, and very attentive. A Corgi is a very determined little dog. Despite its short legs, it is tenacious and can be stubborn. A Horgi takes these qualities from both parents.

They tend to be bundles of energy that love being playful. While they’re not exactly cheap to buy, there’s not among the most expensive mixed breeds out there, either. At an average price of $300-$700 for a puppy, you’ll still have plenty of money left over to keep tons of General Mills dog food on standby.

Mixed Between: Great Dane & Mastiff
Average Price: $2,000-$3,000*

If small dogs aren’t your thing, then don’t panic. There are plenty of wonderful, huggable, almost human-sized dogs out there, too. Great Danes are formidable gentle giants, while Mastiffs also look majestic and strong. That’s why they work so well together. 

Daniff @Rachel Susi / Pinterest.com

These dogs are lovable and protective. If there’s something you need guarded (your house, you, your family, etc.), the Daniff is your dog. They got the protective, loyal nature from their parents. They are also super active, requiring a lot of toys and exercise. This cross-breed lives twelve years, on average.

A Daniff dog that’s well cared for will have a wonderfully shiny coat. They’re also incredibly intelligent, but can be a little mischievous as puppies which makes them slightly harder to train than some other breeds. Plus, burglars will think twice when they see one of these in your yard which is reassuring!

Mixed Between: Swedish Vallhund & Corgi
Average Price: $1,500-$2,300*

What do you get when you mix a Swedish Vallhund with a Corgi? A beautiful pup with a curled tail that looked like a stumpy wolf. These dogs are attractive to look at, and typically can be found winning dog competitions nationwide.

The Swedish Vallhund Corgi mix is “super rare,” according to one breeding site. When the two breeds are mixed, the end result is a wolf with really short, stubby legs. The SVC is sturdy and loves herding, even if there are no sheep in sight. Don’t be surprised if you get herded walking down the hallway of your home.

They’re great farm dogs but are also just as happy curled up on the couch spending time with their families. When it comes to being loving, loyal, and obedient, a Swedish Vallhund Corgi mix has it all and more, making them unmissable pooches.

Mixed Between: Poodle & Cocker Spaniel
Average Price: $900-$2,500*

Whoever thought of breeding a Poodle and a Cocker Spaniel may have realized they were onto a winner. The Cockapoo first appeared in the 1960s, going on to become a popular mixed breed pup. They’re intelligent and despite their long hair don’t tend to shed much. Cockapoos want lots of love and attention.

At a cost of anywhere between $900-$2,500, one of these pups doesn’t come cheap, but can you really put a price on four-legged perfection? These dogs are happiest when they’re entertained, so puzzles, toys, and plenty of petting is required.

Designer dog breeders bred the Cockapoo because they wanted a healthy companion dog. The result was a loving, affectionate cross-breed. The Cockapoo lives from fourteen to eighteen years, and it will grow to 9.8 to 15 inches in height. The average weight of an adult Cockapoo is 12 to 24 pounds.

Mixed Between: Corgi & German Shepherd
Average Price: $250-$750*

Corgi dogs seem to be a popular choice for mixing interesting breeds, and for good reason. Cormans are the result of breeding with a German Shepherd. Yes, they look cute, but they’re also remarkably loyal dogs that are brave and notoriously (adorably?) stubborn.

Basically, the Corman looks like a GSD with short legs. Will we see the Corman become a K9? Probably not, because that would be hilarious. However, this adorable dog is still very loyal, alert, and attentive. Don’t be surprised if you have a little shadow following you around the house.

When it comes to their personality traits, Cormans score fairly high in all sectors. They’re friendly, adaptable, they’re good around children, and they love affection. On the flip side, they do drool a little and aren’t always overly keen on strangers, although they soon warm up to someone that loves and feeds them.
