The cheapest American breed is the Beagle. These dogs are as hardy as they come and probably have the lowest lifetime healthcare cost among all budget-friendly pooches. Aside from their low vet bills, these hounds also have strong genetic health, require minimal grooming, and need just a single meal a day.

Bichon Frise

An average purchase price of $525 and typical bathing cost of $33 make the Bichon one of the cheapest dogs to own. Bichon Frises have a life expectancy of 12 to 15 years and a potential minimum healthcare cost of $4,300 to treat common breed-specific issues, such as cataracts and patellar luxation.

Chihuahua. These tiny, feisty dogs have become famous as the purse-sized companions of rich celebrities. They make the list of least expensive dogs because of their $23 average bathing cost and $650 purchase price.
