I just sold nice Biewer pups for $1500. and paid more than twice that amt. for the parents. so location is very much apart of pricing  |
Your right, but to expand on the reasoning for location and pricing.....One must consider that vet care is pricier than in other areas.....obtaining the proper testing for a breeding sire and dam and their offspring is factored in. I've always paid more for my dogs, since they are show/breed quality and Championed. However, their offspring if sold as pet are not sold the same price I paid for their parents.
