Gilbey 1,462 Posted July 13, 2021 Report Share Posted July 13, 2021 Said the other week there is lower priced pups starting to show, even more now. 74 lurcher adverts on pets4homes for £500 or under, the other sites will be the same.... Quote Link to post

I mean come on, we now live in a world where men carry ‘designer man bags’ ffs if the going rate of a fanny licker pet dog is £2000 then that’s what’s gonna get charged mostly to pet homes, why wouldn’t you ? Working hokes are a different thing, but still folk under value Lurchers, a good spaniel pup would hve cost you £500 for just about forever, it’s not a lot of money in the grand scheme of things and if you’re bitching and moaning at paying 300-500 you need to have a think why. But I would say the vast majority of working Lurcher pups change hands for between nothing and 500 quid. And pretty much every lad I know with digging dogs is giving them into their circle for nowt to get them worked and keep the blood on the ground. We’ve got a litter or Lurchers and bushers at the moment and any spare pups will be sensible money to go toward rearing them and that’s it. Hit the nail on the head mate 1 Quote Link to post

I just had a decent look about and your right, most pups are still quite expensive but didn’t actually see any as expensive as the ones that made me start this thread (worst was £1500). Reassuring that 2k is indeed a ridiculous price to charge for a lurcher. Quote Link to post
