SheepChaser 8,089 Posted March 5, 2020 Report Share Posted March 5, 2020 Most real good litters aren’t sold anyhow, but if someone offered you a very well bred out for £300 quid, and it was the money that put you off, well keeping a dog ain’t cheap at times. A good dog will pay you back many times over. 3 1 Quote Link to post
Dinosaurs 2,090 Posted March 5, 2020 Report Share Posted March 5, 2020 If its what you fancy then give them a ring you’ll get an idea from listening to them ie if they try hard sell approach. Also ask for no of owners of previous litter as hes kept intouch with them all see if previous doing what you require. Atb Quote Link to post
moonlighter 1,164 Posted March 6, 2020 Report Share Posted March 6, 2020 Looks a decent litter and the price is cheap for a dog imo. We payed £600 for a pet dog, let alone one that works. And I think most people have to buy from an advert as not everyone breeds what your after. I’ve had Lurchers for 30 years, and have been in a coursing club, met lads from all over, ferreted and dug to terriers regular, yet when I wanted my latest dog, I had to use an advert from the county mans weekly.

white van man 3,310 Posted March 7, 2020 Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 Mate was interested in this litter but has done his homework and decided to give them a miss. Parents looked like good dogs and people were helpful enough......but. Think it’s the dams 3rd litter so that’s a fair bit of time out of ‘grafting’. Not saying they won’t do the job but I would always try get a pup off someone who is genuinely keeping one back for themselves and mates. 2 Quote Link to post

After all, if you never buy anything sold for profit you'd be riding a horse or walking everywhere and wearing homemade clothes and living in a house you'd built from trees, mud and grass. It's all for the cion these days. Edited March 7, 2020 by Maximus Ferret Quote Link to post
