smasher 1,055 Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 Could never get my head around why someone would pay that sort of money for a dog to win a rosette at a working terrier show,surely it would make more sense to just go out and buy a pedigree dog and enter it in crufts and the likes, if winning shows was there thing.A fool and his money are easily parted 4 Quote Link to post

Mosby 355 Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 To those folks a fine looking animal is a work of art. A painting sells for 2k everyday, we don't bat a lash but a dog sells for 2k its news. That dog is beautiful. Though dogs are relatively cheap, maybe we should consider our dogs of higher worth, as stig did. A painting can't be painted the same way twice and there will never be another dog like one you've owned or own. Our animals are our art. It's a sign of respect not the sign of a fool to value a dog highly. But heck, unless the dog was a worker, you could talk me into parting with it for 2k. Don't want to sound like a hypocrite. My favorite workers though... No amount of money would part them from me. Only the cold hand of death. 5 Quote Link to post
