But would not take it agood gun dog line are fetching good money so if you are passionate about the breed and the WORKING side , and breeding good honest WORKING border pups instead of flooding the market with non workers. It take a long time to get a good line but so very easy to lose it 2 Quote Link to post
northern lad 2,292 Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 what lines are they from breeder,sounds a lot of money to me i admire your dedication to the breed,but that is mega bucks!have you got any pics ?cheers,dave Quote Link to post
tillearthdouspart 100 Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 Maybe it's cause a good border is rare. Very high price. 1 Quote Link to post
mark p 60 Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 a border pup out of the right gear sells for400 to 500 so a garanteed worker and producer for a grand is not that bad when you think about it. Quote Link to post
