Lloyd90 Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 Sheep dogs often sell for big money. 8 week old pup broke the record last week think it sold for £7,000, and that’s not due to Covid prices. Fully trained dogs will often sell for £15k plus. Several farmers I know have said they are worth every penny. A top class sheepdog can do the work of several men on the farm.

They can go for $75,000+ Was just going to say the same, I've seen protection dogs, ipo ect go for that sort of money, I've heard of dogs in the states go north of 100k. Crazy money! That said, look at the cost race horses sell for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sabel25 Posted February 8, 2021 Report Share Posted February 8, 2021 A shooting pal told a story of a man rushed into hospital where his wife worked'He bought a Rottweiler to protect his home and family He'd had a few drinks and got up through the night to go to wc. Not wanting to disturb the household Went in the dark wearing nothing The dog attacked and removed all his crown jewels I think that is the most expensive dog?
