It seems like because they became popular, people raised the price, just because there are people that will pay it. |
$5000 is an unreasonable price for any breed of dog, whether purebreed or mix. That can just serve as huge red flag that these are people wanting money than to breed their dogs to improve the breed. At least that's what I'd think after seeing that kind of price tag.
