I will say this...

Those that have raised their own dogs and catch hogs with them understand their monetary value.

It's not rocket science...put a pencil to what it costs to keep a dog for 3-4 years...feed, vaccinations, worming medications, misc vet bills.  Then factor in time spent tending to, cleaning and basic daily upkeep.  THEN factor in the time spent on fuel hauling to the pen, then hauling to the woods only to HOPE it makes a dog you can be proud of.

I can guarantee you, anyone selling a 3+ year old decent dog they have raised for $1,000+ is not making much (if any) cash out of the deal.
