How much

[Squirrel_Basher 17,100]

Not a lot more to add to this really ,just a big shame there is this divide in whats more important ,money or dogs.Personally i dont think anyone who hasnt earned the right to own a decent dog should have one IMO.Probably rues out 2/3 of this forum mind what from what ive read .

FD, i know where your coming from, i refuse to sell dogs on the basis of "just becuase youve got a few quid doesn't automatically give you the right to own a dog from my yard". That being said i know a good dog when i see one and if i was unlucky enough to find myself short of a genuin digging terrier there isn't a hill high enough or a price high enough to stop me buying it.

I'm lucky enough to have a good yard of terriers and friends whom i "think" would help me out if the need arises.

Mind you with all the shit that goes on these days i think i'de try "yet again" to call it a day and knock the whole thing on the head.

im short of digging dogs at the mo-met a girl,started a family-got shot of all my young uns-kept a dog and a bitch to keep me going-but they are now reaching retirement age -i have the use of a young dog bred from my dog and bitch,showing promise but a tad on the hard side and is in the sick bay quite often-so for the first time ever i have just bought a dog in-a 4yr old honest little bitch off a good lad-know the breeding and its all there she does whats on the tin so i paid the man 300 notes and would have paid double that for what i wanted-you cant put a price on a good reliable digging dog/lurcher in my eyes.atb bobby

i paid as much as i couldnt afford when i was starting out. got some decent terriers. changed breeds bought in a good bitch. she produced everything i and a good few other lads needed bought a couple of plummers. will never need to buy another. so i would pay well for a decent terrier after that all going well i would breed and rear my own

 

if you are carefull getting your first terrier then with a little luck you wont need to pay again. ballpark figure for a good working terrier. 500

You can't put a price on getting your blood to the right places so that they see the right work in the hands of good people......that's worth all the money in the world.
