Questions & Answers

Questions about puppies for sale in South Carolina? We have answers.

How much do puppies for sale in South Carolina cost?

The prices for puppies in our network of dog breeders vary. It all depends on the puppy you pick and the breeder you get it from. If you pick a more rare breed that’s in higher demand, the price will be more. A more common breed will have a lower price. Long-established, highly recommended breeders also charge higher prices, while newer ones may be more of a bargain. But not to worry, if they’re in the Uptown Puppies network, you can be assured they have good experience and take good care of the pups.

Does your breeder network offer dogs for sale in South Carolina out of state?

Yes. If you’re seeking puppies for sale, South Carolina residents can browse our listings for puppies out of state. And likewise, out of state residents who have found the puppy they love most and want to take home with them to love forever from one of our network’s dog breeders in South Carolina, can purchase a puppy from any of our network’s dog breeders regardless of the state they live in and the state where their new puppy is. You can make the trip yourself to pick up your puppy in person, or the breeder can send your pup to you by airline.

How do you screen those who breed puppies in SC?

Any puppy you find on Uptown Puppies was bred and cared for by an experienced breeder who meets our rigorous quality standards for puppy care. When Uptown screens a dog breeder’s background for potential inclusion in our network, we look to see if they have a formal relationship with an attending veterinarian. We also only include dog breeders who have had 18 months or more of experience breeding dogs, and who have successfully raised at least two litters. We have 45 more standards on top of that which must be met.

How is Uptown different from other places where I can get SC pups?

It’s a labor of love. We’ve had to do a lot of work to make a network that is so extensive yet as selective as ours.

What is a puppy mill?

We created Uptown Puppies so people looking for a new dog to add to their family know they’re getting their puppy from a reputable breeders who treats their animals well. Beware of anyone advertising a puppies giveaway, and don’t assume the fur baby listed in CarolinaTrader was treated right, or that its momma was.

What are some of the best breeds for apartments?

When seeking the most ideal puppies for sale, SC residents who have small living spaces have special requirements. You’ll want a dog breed that’s smaller, lower energy, and not too loud. That way both you and your fur friend will be comfortable in your place, your dog won’t get too restless if there aren’t enough opportunities to go on long walks, and the neighbors won’t resent you and your dog. Good small dog breeds include: Malteses, Pomeranians, Poodles, Bulldogs, Basenjis, Boston Terriers, and Dachshunds. Luckily there are plenty of small dogs for sale in SC.

What are some of the most intelligent and easy to train breeds?

When looking for puppies, SC residents have different tastes. You may want a super intelligent, but challenging breed like a Siberian Husky. But if you’re looking for a smart breed that’s also a little less unruly, and easy to train, some breeds known for their intelligence, obedience, and desire to please their owners are: a Border Collie, Poodle, Labrador Retriever, German Shepherd, Havanese, Border Terrier, Boxer, or Australian Shepherd.

What is a hybrid breed/designer dog?

Dog owners have loved the classic thoroughbred dogs through the ages, but lately there has been a surge of popularity in designer dogs-- hybrid breeds created by mixing two different unique breeds to create dogs that are even more unique, interesting, and fun. Browse our listings for Peekapoo puppies for sale in SC if you want a good example. Other popular hybrid breeds are the Golden Doodle, Saint Berdoodle, Pomsky, Bullmatian, Morkie, Goberian Husky, or Cockapoo. (There’s plenty more.)

While we don’t sell or breed our own puppies, we DO connect people looking for puppies with the very best, most experienced, and highly ethical breeders we know of. Uptown does not breed puppies ourselves, and we’re not a chain of breeders either. Instead we’re like the Google of cute puppies. We serve you the most relevant results, and by relevant we mean, the kind of puppy you’re looking for, but also from the kind of dog breeder we assume you’re looking for-- someone who knows how to care for the animals, and treats them like family.
