Guest Eamon.Mc Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 When it comes to terriers and lurcher pups I'd rather not take any money for them but make sure that the homes they go to will test them well and if they don't make the grade they are culled.

moley 115 Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 the maximum i would take would be the price of rearing, however to mates they would be free as long as they are working homes, maximum would be £50 dunno about pups , but i wouldn,t swap a gold cow for any of my dogs , i don,t think you can put a price on a dog thats doing what you want, but there again , money isn,t my god Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest JDF Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 never ceases to amaze me how many lads will shell out hundreds on a working dog without a trial.when they realise it's useless what can they do cull or sell it on to some other mug,it's no wonder shitheads can make a living peddling.

ginge2k6 0 Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 my dog was 50 pound, a mate paid 150 for a deerhoundxgreyhound i would not pay anything over 100 for a dog, good or not. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

whin 463 Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 to me a dog is to provide food, sport and a companion theres not a price on a good dog ive some saluk crosses that can catch winter hares roe rabbits etc and one ole collie cross who has done it all in style,in public , not the best at everything but very good, couldnt put a price on them for sport and table food all the best, and in more unscruplus times for makeing money for game sold Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest JDF Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 true enough,diamonds wouldn't get me to part with a good dog but a pup isn't a good dog it has to be shaped into one.i suppose a price somewhere between reasonable and enough to keep messers away but it's getting a bit silly imo.

patterdalepaul 0 Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 i know a lad that gave £1000 for a bushing dog , i've seen it work and it was'nt that special IMO, suppose its how much you want somthing, everything has a price. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rabbithunter 456 Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 £100 is about the going rate. i know of lads that sold pups for £30, to cover the cost of rearing them. fair do's Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lamperman 12 Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 you can t put a price on a dog that gives you its best and does its job well especialy when you work alone Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whin 463 Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 a fair price to me is £150 for a lurcher or terreir Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lampinglurcher 36 Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 a fair price to me is £150 for a lurcher or terreir IMO a pup should be given to a mate that'l work it but to other workers just enough to cover your own costs, but in the case of rarer breeds, enough to cover hip/eye screening, importation etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
