SheepChaser 8,089 Posted June 20, 2020 Report Share Posted June 20, 2020 Problem is you’d need your head read to advertise a litter for £150/200 now. 2 Quote Link to post
Shadow100 1,066 Posted June 20, 2020 Report Share Posted June 20, 2020 Don’t know why people sell lurchers anyway tbh, id just want proper homes for them, there’s other ways to make money but we’re all different I suppose Quote Link to post

I’d sort mates out & ask lads I trust if they’ve got any close mates needing a pup, failing that I’d place them in pet homes, I definitely wouldn’t advertise them and send them away to lads I didn’t know for a few quid. 1 Quote Link to post

The issue is. If you sell pups cheap or give them to friends of friends. You run the very real risk of them going back up for sale. It’s a sad world. It’s an issue though as in reality - not everyone has a whole load of close, good mates who all want a pup at same time and of the type you keep. 6 Quote Link to post

That’s what I mean only lads I could really trust, i don’t buy in to all that theory if someone spends a good amount on a pup they’re guaranteed to look after it, someone can spend a grand and treat the dog like pure shit or sell it straight on for £1500. Still stand by that though I’d rather pet home than sell to dog lads I didn’t know cause most of them couldn’t keep white mice. 2 Quote Link to post

Shadow100 1,066 Posted June 20, 2020 Report Share Posted June 20, 2020 To be fair at least people knew what they were getting from Hancock, they knew the parents weren’t worked and he was honest about how the pups were bred. The worst ones are the men that rip lads off & tell lies about dogs that never miss, or sell pups with fake breeding. 5 Quote Link to post
