If I were in my late 20's or early 30's I would prefer to buy an up and comer...A 10 month old pup that is a hard hunting, trashy as heck pup...the right size and color and the right parents/bloodline...I would pay 1000 to 1500 for such a pup...then that pup would be bred once if a good one, or, it would be the main dog that a breeding program would be built  around...if he turns out like I think he would...

and if I wasn't interested in a breeding program I still want that above average trashy pup because the chances of getting the pup at a bargain price is good...and this pup probably couldn't be bought once it is a 2 year old dog...
