i wouldnt want to sell mine becuase i use them but i couldnt spend 1000$ on one either and yes its nice to have a good one but it would be hard to send a 1000$ bulldog in a thicket knowing its a matter of time until thats the last thicket he goes in. ive hunted with alot of sorry bulldogs and got by and its not fun at all and ive hunted with some good ones that was real good and their usualy the ones that dont last to long. but as being more valuable than a bay dog that is a hog dog its no comparsion. a bulldog is much more easily to replace than a real hog dog is. i hope im not replacing any in the near future of the either . in my 14 years of hog hunting wiht dogs ive onle owned 1 bulldog that made it to retirment. but to answer your question the most i would pay is 300$max for a good one
I can understand your sentiment...but, anytime you turn a dog loose in the woods there's a chance you won't be putting him back in a kennel when you're done. Could be just the way we hunt, but we have more injuries to the curs than the bulldogs.
X2 with us. I know after catchin a big hog the first thing I look at is the huntin dogs to see if everyone made it
