Waz 4,252 Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 Im in this boat now its a very deep fcuking hole. Going to limp through till the end of January and cross my fingers ill find something. if you could go out now/today see a dog working and be offered would you pay 500 notes for it -- to get you over this season ? I dont know (head is not straight enough to think). If I said yes id have to be 100% sure the dog is not stolen and trust the mans word on how he represents the dog. In reality it'd probably cost me more than £500 to go and travel to get something decent... ce'st la vie. Quote Link to post
fat man 4,741 Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 I personally would not sell a working terrier as they are too hard to come by imo.I dont know too many that would sell a worker,i do know of plenty that will sell shite terriers and tell you there working just to get your hard earned cash.Only recently one of my diging mates bought a dog in good faith only to be let down,the dog spewed and he only got half his money back,the worst part is another one of the lads i dig with has 2 pups in his kennels of this same dog,why people lie about a dogs working ability is beyond me as the 1st time the buyer takes it out he will know ,f*****g arseholes. 2 Quote Link to post

the_stig 6,614 Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 if it was a case of hanging on to your permission and wanted the seasons sport -- and you needed a dog quick and the right dog came up -- @ £500 i`d snap it up and think it was cheap .. about the same money as a n reg astra with a bit of tax and test --- Quote Link to post
WILF 46,679 Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 You just cant put a price on good stuff (lurchers or terriers).......it takes so long to get to a point that you are happy with, loads of dissapointment along the way, loads of time invested with no reward.........money just cant buy that imho if you are serious about the standard you want to keep and I wouldnt sell any of mine for any price. When it comes to buying something, then I beleive its more about the stock than the money, the price is purely secondary......take time, do your homework, be sure would be my advice. Load of people will try and sell you all sorts of shite with marvelous tales of past victorys dating back over generations of breeding, dont be fooled.....at least 50% of the time, its all bollocks. Get to know people, get to know there stuff and its style......if you are happy with it, then when a litter comes along see if you can get one and if there is a price tag, then pay it if its what you really want.

Mosby 355 Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 Most guys with awesome dogs aren't trying to sell you anything and they aren't trying to talk anybody into taking their dogs. Why would they want random people taking on their dogs. Good dog men are begged for their dogs. They don't have to brag anything up. The dogs do the talking. I'm not saying good dog men don't sell dogs. Just saying they don't have to talk up their stock. 2 Quote Link to post

sionnach99 1,259 Posted June 3, 2019 Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 Its been said already on this thread and its the only answer that is right... money and dogs shouldnt come into the equation, no matter what breed of dog it is from an earthdog to a springer and every type of working dog in between... if you have to look for money off another man with the same interest as you that will give the dog the work well then your at nothing. Some day you might want the favour returned. Its hard enough find decent dogs off good stuff without having to pay stupid money. There will be money after us , it will come and go, as soon as money comes into it greed takes over and the game is f****d, if your hunting with decent lads they will not look for money for a pup ... and as for putting a price on a full working dog, theres some things that dont be sold and thats one of them. 3 Quote Link to post
