whats the most you would pay for a pup

[killemall 1]

I paid £850 for my Bedlington dog and about £1200 getting him to the UK, with the price of stud fee's i feel ive only got to use maybe 5 times and he's paid for.

Ive just bought 2 whippet pups from ireland for £300, id only get one in the UK for that sort of money

 

Where did the beddy come from?

Sweden

 

 

Any good?

He's not a working bred dog,i bought him as a stud dog for the future there isent anything wrong with the dogs in this country i was getting a bit close on my lines and just felt i needed some new blood. With the price of diesel traveling to remote parts of the UK to mate one of my bitch, i just felt this was a cheaper option.

what track was your dog running on?

i would pay £200 at the most for a working dog and thats still abit over for my liking, i know people say you pay good money for good breeding, but even the best dogs throw shite working dogs.

the way i look at a dog for a price is how is he bred what can he catch and what has he caught ie rabbit roe hares and fox daylite nite time and if you dont have to do much to get them catching ie natural ability and to stay sound my olld bitch lana i bred today to a dog bred simliar who can run and is tough on fox etetetc so if you good on the standard what you catch unasisted on there own in all sorts off places give 4 season of hard graft well i would say a price is hard i would not charge the earth more to the piont keep in contact were the pups are and how are the doing 250 is a fair price for a carefully bred dog who can do whats aked season after season and is bred [bANNED TEXT] for the job youlll always pay more for line bred qaulity pups who are proven down the generaitions as if you count the time you spend makeing them great and with there own ability even 500 is cheap cheers

and do you think deerhound breeders are taking the piss at £650 plus a pup.

Why is that so expensive when you can pay that for lap dog that only wieghs 10lb and cant catch a cold. Lurchers and terriers are far too cheap in my opinion. Thats how they get passed around so easily and why less people breed there own stock. Easy come easy go.

 

People say they should be working mens prices but that same working man would think nothing of going into debt for a holiday or a new gun or whatever takes his fancy.

 

My point is if they had paid 500quid for the dog they would think twice before getting rid. Also if you dont value a dog more than 1 or 2 hundred then maybe you shouldnt bother because the first vet bill could exceed that.

im not talkin about lap dogs or showdogs ,im talkin about a dog for work,a fair price yes,but one that just jumps on the bandwagon of the crufts brigade.no.

Sorry I dont understand what point you are making.

I agree

Depends on the Dam and Sire. If i'd seen them both work and they were mustard and I could get first dibs on the litter £500. However if you're not a messer and know straight up lads you won't be paying daft wedge for your pup !

i would pay £200 at the most for a working dog and thats still abit over for my liking, i know people say you pay good money for good breeding, but even the best dogs throw shite working dogs.

So what if you couldnt find one 200 or under does that mean you would live without a dog. If so you really ought to consider not having one at all.

[Guest merlin]

the most i would (and have)ever give for a pup(lurcher or terrier)is £100.that's the way it will remain.they are working dog pups for working class people.you are paying for a pup(that might amount to shit)not a proven dog.paying big money=you lose more

why should i consider not having a dog ? not all dogs work reguardless of what the parents can do, so why should i pay a fortune for somthing that might be shite???? consider not having one!! what a load of bollocks...

the way i look at dogs if they dont pay the price asked then why the fech waste your time unless close freinds , lets say you caught 40 roe 30 hares a dozen foxesa few hundred rabbs roughly every season etc for four seasons you sell your game you take yur dog out with allsorts of people and they do well consistently you cant put a price on a dog like that and if you see the father doing it the grand father doing it money cant buy that mate honestly , if i could by pups that were like thta i wouldnt travel 400 miles to get it, do my head in to find a suitable stud dog , its not realy an advertisement its life . if you clock up the miles the food bills the fun and heartache you get with dogs who try there guts money cant by it , its like haveing a butchers and a spare cash nachine with pocket money two roe quid when it was legal hares4 pound etc cheers
