Simoman 110 Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 Just out of curiosity, what would you/have you paid for 100% terrier, one that could find, stay, didn't get banged up and could work consistantly throughout the season? Also what would you/have you paid for a lurcher that can take a variety of quarry, i.e. lamped rabbit/foxes, take hare, work with terriers and take deer? The valued all rounder Quote Link to post
lucky 578 Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 the most i've paid for a terrier is £200 and £200 is also the most i've had to pay for a lurcher, but if i wanted a dog that i no could do the job i would be prepared to pay a bit more if i had to Quote Link to post

Guest mush Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 I would rather breed train and start it my self but if i need to get a working lurcher in i would pay more than i could afford for the right dog. but it would have to be the right breeding so i could carry on the line.

chartpolski 23,066 Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 Next door neighbour just paid £750 for a show type Beagle pup, so what price the fabled "all round lurcher" ? If such a beast exists and came onto the market. Cheers. Quote Link to post
Guest mush Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 That's what i can never under stand, how people can pay so much for a pedigree dog that sits on its back side all its life, and then moan about paying for a well bred lurcher or terrier Quote Link to post

Guest Cal Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 Here's another angle, who under no circumstances would buy in an adult dog preferring to rear and train their own. I personnally wouldn't buy an adult. Quote Link to post
