How much would you pay for a jam up dog?

My problems time I have bought dogs for cheap that for one reason or other didnt work out I have had decent luck raising dogs in the past never had one that realy showed out but I got 2 young dogs right now that have the most potential in a pup I ever had and I don't want to waist that and really think a jam up dog to put them with will make a huge difference one pup is (running walker x Parker cur) the other is (Engish hound x Catahoula) I have not owned dogs like these two before I think they will be something if I can just get them in the right direction. I think $1000-$2000 is alot of money to throw at a hog dog but not unfair considering expenses like Curcross says its what I love to do I dont fish or run the bars so why not spend a little money on my hobby $2000 is about my limit though haha thanks guys I just needed a little push to get out my wallet.
