I would put mine around the price of that legit Parker lol. But you can't put a price on a irreplaceable dog no matter the breed or his job

I don't have room for one...if I lived somewhere that I could keep as many dogs as I wanted I would pay 5 or 6 hundred for the right pup as long as he was guaranteed to catch at a year...and the right breeding/size/color and demeanor...a good looking dog that could be used for breeding/catching hogs, and showing it off...
really...I would rather get the job done without one...but lots of times a good bulldog comes in handy...especially in places where a gun is not allowed...

You always hear people say aw just a bulldog. That is in my opinion the most important job if you are wanting to catch pigs. Cuz it don't take the best dog to find and bay a hog but you dang sure better have a goo catch dog if ya want to catch the pigs you do find and bay

Yeah, ole Bo quite and calm on the box. But when its time to go he is all busines. I like also that he will pick his entrance and not just blow otta the box into straight briars and thickett and when he gets about ten foot from the hog the cross hairs come into focus and he shifs gears and explodes on the hogs ear. I was worried when we first started he wanted the nose but after a few bad cuts and threw the jaw one time that was lesson learned ear every time since and then lays on the big hogs body. He has three 300 pounders to his credit credentials a couple 290's and a ton below that. I bought a custom made vest for him threw p&p and its one of the best investments a man can make.

A bunch to say the least. We only had one at the start of this year and he got cut down bad and we spent the next month trying "catch" dogs and driving to look at them, went through a half dozen to find two. We now have three as a group but they all have one or two canines chipped or broke or missing. Be real nice to pick up a sure enough good one just for back up and maybe retire a couple of the older ones we have.

sometimes we miss big boars because of not having a solid catch dog... it seems that back in the 1980's one could find a catch dog easy enough...now it is hard to find one that will...I believe the main reason is because we are getting farther away from when fighting dogs became illegal... |

Kreig will 3 in November, and I'd price him to high to sell to anyone with cash. Everything I own is for sale, for the right price of course. However he's listed as "priced not to sell".jmo a great CD, whatever it is a pit, dogo, a cross, etc is worth its weight in gold.

I somewhat disagree, I believe it's harder to find good ones because the folks that have those good ones don't just hand out their lineage just like good hog dogs. The hog hunting world has been flooded by ppl wanting to make a quick $ on the sport and breeding anything with 4 legs they can call a hunting dog. |

Lacyman...people who breed correctly breed better dogs...IMO...the percentage of those type of breeders are lower so it reflects on the dogs as well...just because one APBT is a great catch dog does not make him a dog worth breeding if he comes from a long line of dogs that did not catch...he probably will make a good starting point for developing a good breeding program but not to build one around that dog...

A good one is priceless. A lot of folks wont pay good money for a pup or older dog for that matter. To me the job they do is just as important and equally valuable.

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

That seems to be the magic number for most guys 300 but I have seen guys pay 5 times that for a pit that never caught any thing I think most just don't put much worth on a bulldog and but some do lol

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. |
