the pup jumped up and ripped his wife knit $200 coat. I am still letting him be a puppy,but it looks like its going to cost me. I don't know how to stop him from this habit.

I am sure the V market is different, but I don't think Shadowoak Bo would bring that and his stud fees and pups are $3,000+.
What is your stud fee?
So what is the high ball number?
That's true. It's not unusual for a person to have a field trial dog with a trainer for two years, have $20,000.00 in training,wash the dog out, and sell it for a nice gun dog for $2,500.00 - $5,000.00. There is no way to value a dog; they're worth what someone will pay for it and money invested or sentiment have nothing to do with it.Neil wrote:
I let the brag go the first time, but the low ball quip was over the top. You brag like that you owe proof. What you spend on one has nothing to do with value. I sold one I had about $20,000 invested for $2,000 and was lucky to get it.
Using your formula for worth, the poorer the dog, the more training it takes, the more it is worth. Just don't think dogs or much of anything else is priced that way. My old truck is getting to the point it is worth more than a new one. Interested in buying it?Brazosvalleyvizslas wrote:That's a low ball figurekcbullets wrote:$80k dog, wow...
I have rescues that I treat the same so get off my $ss with your high horse.ezzy333 wrote:Using your formula for worth, the poorer the dog, the more training it takes, the more it is worth.

I think the value of a dog allowed free-rein in a dog park germaine, as the man chided me for not doing so as he did with his $80,000 (low ball value) dogs.MJB64 wrote:Is any of this helping the original post? Maybe we should all read the subject line to see what the OP wants before replying to a post . This person needs obedience advice, not a dog value pissing match.

Yes sir. Sorry, I didn't mean to offend you. Forgive me please. And thank you for your considerate well thought out response. Hope this gets me off the hook or a$$ as you say.Brazosvalleyvizslas wrote:I have rescues that I treat the same so get off my $ss with your high horse.ezzy333 wrote:Using your formula for worth, the poorer the dog, the more training it takes, the more it is worth.
