roybo 2,873 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) I paid £100 8 year ago I thought that very reasonable, Would pay hell of a lot more for her knowing what she has become. Priceless to me . If I ever get a litter outmine I'd sooner them go to a home where they get loads of work on lot of varied quarry and gift them in return to see them work a few times when they are doing their owners proud Edited March 4, 2014 by roybo Quote Link to post
desertbred 5,490 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) some of the handbag dogs x.s cockapoo labradoodle etc are fetching anything from £500 to £850 a pop any pedigree is fetching anything up to a couple of grand so talking of £50 for a coursing dog is absolute madam. a good digging dog 4/500 quid/ a gun dog anything from a grand upwards so how are coursing dogs any less animals?, a dog is worth what someone is willing to pay for it, if its a good dog or bitch there is a return on the money when it retires from studding or litters it costs over a 100 quid for a mongrel from a dog pound so get real 50 quid Edited March 4, 2014 by desertbred Quote Link to post

dogmad riley 1,337 Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 For me the lurcher game is a working man's game so working man's prices. I think the lurchers bred should always be passed around friends in the hunting game and not just any old Tom dick or harry. A working man's price should be paid to cover the rearing costs.

Flacko 1,732 Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Everyman values there stock different the point is if you really rate the parents and the dog is bred for your type of work you will have to pay the asking price be it £50 or £200 you pay your money and take your chance.On the other hand some men more or less gift them to mates or genuine hunting lads so that they can keep tabs on how litter turns out and that's how proper mates evolve and we all get to meet proper hunting men not pup peddlers .
