socks 32,253 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 There has been a number of let's say heated discussions on this site recently about the price of pups ... So what does everybody think I should charge for my pups ... What are they worth in your opinions ... I know what I want for them but for discussion sake let's see what the majority think ......

forest of dean redneck 11,594 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 £120-£150 . 1 Quote Link to post
peterhunter86 8,627 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Between 150 and 200 or if its to a friend it should be gifted 1 Quote Link to post
Poacherspocket 189 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Iv no issue paying 150 for a lurcher thats off good stuff and has had the best start in life. Lurchers generally have big litters so all costs will be accounted for and some i guess. If i hadnt got a pup id be top of the list for yours and would definetly pay more for them because i can only guess how well they will be. 1 Quote Link to post
burnie69 376 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 You do what you think best. I had a litter of terrier and lurcher pups last year. I kept 2 outta each and the rest was gifted out. Am I right in doing so or am I a fool? I'd glady buy a pup if I wanted it badly enough. 3 Quote Link to post
blackmaggie 3,376 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 i would gladly pay whatever the owner asked has long has the parents ticked all the boxes i needed to many now live on names donkeys years ago just to sell pups but rather than money i would place the pups in a home were they will see the graft they deserve but im sure you already knew that socks Quote Link to post
terryd 8,414 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 because you know exactly what your getting 150- 200 Quote Link to post
neil b 2,296 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Mates should be gifted one otherwise as above £150ish is peanuts really when you think how much pleasure you would get out of a lurcher season after season 2 Quote Link to post
Lenmcharristar 9,762 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 100 max, any more and it's all about raking in the cash, but that's only my opinion, I've heard hell of a lot on here say they want working only homes then say 300 to 500 a pup, ya just have to laugh Quote Link to post
haymin 2,465 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 People you no or have met and there good lads gifted , if you don't no them 150 if there traveling far you can give the a discount for there effort , failing that I can see you charging more 200 if they want the pup that bad they'll pay it good breeding you have there be great dogs ?

Barbarian1990 220 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Good post I've seen a couple I'm interested in one litter chap said -100 other litter bloke wants 300 their both pups I'd like and id buy either of them and take the risk their going to do the job I want. I've always thought 150 was a decent price but only litter we've ever had was gifted out so I've no idea what I'm talking about haha. Quote Link to post
Tuzo 251 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 A working man earns let's say £400 in a week. The pup could potentially give him maybe 10 years work.....I know your pups are from good stuff so for me they're easily worth a weeks wages.... 3 Quote Link to post
riohog 5,701 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 200 quid each ,if they cant aford that they cant aford to look after a pup 4 Quote Link to post
roybo 2,873 Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 As said £150 -£200 But if I had the feeling they'd get worked hard and the lad was a decent sort ,or it was a mate who recommended them I'd probably give for free under the understanding it comes back to me or I get a say where it goes if they can't keep. A few days out or knowing how the pup is doing would be plenty of payment. Trouble is it's not always repaid,so makes you wonder if it's worth helping lads out . I'd certainly pay more than that if I really want a pup though . So put the price on them that's a middle ground between keeping messers away and good lads interested ,and keep a few close and hope for a pup or stud back in the future. 6 Quote Link to post
