The Ibizan Hound is a very old dog breed that can be traced back to 3400 B.C. This dog breed was not seen in the United States until 1956, when the first litter was produced. In 1978 the breed finally got recognized by the AKC.
If you are looking to get an Ibizan Hound, then I suggest purchasing from a reputable breed that will have Ibizan Hound puppies for sale. You will find some breeders that I suggest below.
How Much Does an Ibizan Hound Cost?
The cost of your Ibizan Hound puppy will vary from breeder to breeder. Most breeders have champion dogs, so that may influence the price to be higher. You can expect to spend between $2,000 and $3,000 for your new Ibizan puppy.
Where Can I Find a Reputable Ibizan Hound Breeder
Here are some very reputable breeders that are currently breeding Ibizan Hound puppies for sale. You want to purchase from a reputable breeder rather than a puppy mill or pet store.
Abbaio Ibizans
Sarah Murphy is the breeder that is running Abbaio Ibizans. She started showing dogs at the young age of eleven and purchased her very own Ibizan Hound in 2002. She spent many years handling dogs in shows and attended at least 150 dog shows per year. However, it wasn’t until 2011 that this breeder produced her very first litter of Ibizan Hound puppies for sale.
A lot of her puppies have gone on to win championship titles, making her breeding operation a great success. Since 2011 she has been consistently breeding the Ibizan Hound dog breed. Most Ibizans will produce between one to two litters each year.
Most breeders, as well as this one, will have an ongoing waiting list that you will have to wait on until you can get your new puppy. So, you may possibly have to wait for two litters until you can finally get your puppy. The best way to figure out how long you will have to wait on a waiting list is to directly ask the breeder. Get your name on that waiting list as soon as possible.
Sarah will also need you to fill out a questionnaire that will let her know more about you and exactly what you are looking for in your future dog. Also, it is good for you to know that this breeder does complete a series of health testing before ever breeding.
Sarah always has upcoming litters, so this is definitely a great choice if you are looking for a very reputable Ibizan Hound breeder. Find out a ton more information here: http://www.abbaioibizans.com/index.php?&page=&left=
L-Wynd Ibizans
The breeder at this kennel has been breeding the Ibizan dog breed for the past twenty years. Her goal has always been to follow the standard of the breed as well as creating dogs that are sound in mind, health, and temperament.
This breeder is located in Northwest, Arkansas, and met her first Lbizan Hound in 2002 and got her first one in 2003. One of her favorite things about this breed is the complete versatility this dog breed offers. You can take your dog to shows and then completely switch gears and run around on the beach with your dog.
Typically, this breeder has a litter every other year. The next litter should be coming up very soon. This breeder likely has a waiting list that she goes by to reserve puppies from her litters. Before she even puts a potential owner on a waiting list, the owners need to fill out a questionnaire. This is very standard nowadays, with a lot of very reputable breeders.
Once you fill that out and submit it, it will be sent to the breeder. If the breeder does not reach out back to you, send out an email letting the breeder know that you have filled out the questionnaire and are very interested in one of her Ibizan Hound puppies for sale.

Ibizan Hound Rescue
Almost all purebred breeds have their own specific rescue that is dedicated to rescuing that breed in need. The Ibizan Hound Rescue is dedicated to just that which is rescuing the Ibizan Hound.
This rescue is located in Spain and is known as a registered animal charity there. They rehome and rehabilitate dogs in need and try to find them their forever home.
They are always welcoming foster homes that will look after the dog until it can be fully adopted. If you are in Spain, you can apply to be a foster parent. This is a great way to help out and be involved to take care of a dog until it can get adopted.
If you do adopt a dog, it will be significantly cheaper than purchasing from a breeder. However, keep in mind you will most likely be purchasing an older dog that could have some potential health issues.
Summary
If you are on the search for a fast and highly intelligent hound dog, then I definitely recommend checking out the Ibizan Hound. All of the breeders above can certainly help you get Ibizan Hound puppies for sale. You will be more than satisfied shopping from a breeder rather than a pet store or puppy mill.
