How much do dogs cost these days?

[eggsarascal]

I’m possibly going to get another dog, I’ve spoken to @Stubby our local Spaniel man about prices but like myself he’s a few years behind on price. Is £1500 for a good pedigree working Springer (dog) about right?

Bought this non pedigree working cocker spaniel for£600.00 last week personally think that knowing the parents is far better than a pedigree

Personally I think that is expensive ATM, digs in lockdown went mental price wise, then every one who had a bitch thought we can make a few quid and  breed pups hence flooding the market hence prices fell, for £1500 today it must be so.ethi g very special and very well bread, I would think £750 - £1000 for a top bread springer, lab or cocker is about the mark,,

I guess it’s like any dog, just because it comes off Mike The Miller, or Bellyregan Bob it doesn’t mean it’s fast. I just want, and don’t mind paying for a good dog. I just thought £1500 was strong for a Springer dog pup. If you know where there are any ping me a message, I’m not far down the road from you.

We just sold 5 KC registered Samoyed puppies for £2500 each. They sell themselves to be honest.

How much difference in price, if any between dogs and bitches?

I paid 18000 Nok for a purebred Jämthund in January this year.  Not sure how much my old man paid for his working line spaniels.  They were worth every penny though.

 

Amazing dogs.  
 

Here is Kira, she was 6 months old on the 12th.

Nice looking dog mate, would you mind asking your dad what he paid. Not that it makes much difference, the bloke who has the pups I’m thinking about isn’t going to move on price, I either pay it or look elsewhere. Speaking to the gamekeeper I had my last two Spaniels off he seem to think they are overpriced.
