Just because it's a $200 catch doesn't mean it's any less of a dog than a $1000 catch dog right? Just like a strike dog, know what you're buying before you buy it.
Price has nothing to do with how good the dog is. And to be honest, i've been very disappointed in some of the big $$$ catch i've seen and hunted with... a lot of those are sold based on breed.
Amen to that... and it applies to all hunting dogs..
As for CD's, I Never bought a catchdog in my life. You can get all the bulldog catch dog prospets you want free and just as many of them will make good one's as any you pay $$ for. Fact is most bulldogs will catch, you just may have to go through some and find those that suit ya. No offence to CD breeders tryin to sell CD prospects, but that's just a fact based on what I have experienced and know to be true.
A good finished catch dog,, yea might be worth payin a man something for his time, feed and the proven ability of one in the woods, but remember what he is , what his job is and how things can happen in the blink of an eye with a catchdog doing his job.
