There is not a flat price list for paracritters if that is what you are looking for..

Given they are a pretty exotic awakened critter and highly sought after they will not be cheap, easily 30k to 50K and that is just for the pup.  Might get a little cheaper if you were honestly buying it with all the right permits and such, but who wants a paper trail?

Any training will need a specialized handler who knows what they are doing and geared to work with the ultimate 'doggy breath'

SR4 or SR5?

If the latter, you're SOOL.

If the former, however, you can look up Running Wild. Hellhounds are specifically mentioned in one of the examples.
Quote from: Running Wild, p35
A trained Security Hellhound has a base cost of 10,000 nuyen, multiplied by 10 (Combat Training/Against Instincts), and then multiplied by 2 (Willpower 3) for a total price of 200,000 nuyen

So yeah, not cheap.

But, you can get a ferret pretty inexpensively! :p

Also note that all trained animals come with a minimum lifestyle rating necessary to keep them, and you need the animal handling/training skills to actually train them unless you pay someone else to do it. It's all detailed in the book.
