*blinks* What kind of puppy are you getting? I guess I haven't really done much research into how much purebreds cost, but from looking at ads in the paper and petsitting a couple of English bulldogs and being curious about them, I have to say that this specific sort of bulldog is the only breed of dog I've seen that costs that much. Or is the $ amount also factoring in the initial costs of what is needed for a puppy?
