If this girl is healthy, that is worth the price....she is not an OLD dog....she is only 3 and has a lot of good years left with you....IF SHE IS HEALTHY! I would pay $600.00 for a 3 year old healthy, unregistered dog.....I think sometimes that term "rehome" has a negative connotation, kind of like "teacup"...it automatically sets up expectations of what the asking price should be. I could care less about the "rehome" term...if I had a female that I had to retire at three years old, and she is dual/triple registered with AKC and CKC (Canadian Kennel Club) and likely UKC, and she is healthy, potty trained,.... I would charge $1200.00-1600.00 for her. From me, you would be getting a young, wonderful, healthy, well socialized, registered, microchipped, current on all shots, female that you will have for 10-14 years!
This little lady you are looking at....she is young, if she is healthy, she is not registered which on one hand means nothing to you because you are not breeding her, but on the other hand, is she purebred??....$600.00 is a fair price for a healthy lady... WHY is this woman wanting to dump her? I seldom let my breeders go....makes me feel like a pimp....so my ladies worked for me, and they stay here with me....if I know someone REALLY well and I am certain that lady will be getting at least as much as I can offer her here with me, I have been known to let a couple go....but it is NOT a decision I make on the spot when someone just happens to mention they would take an adult...."OH I have one right here...!" WHY is she ready to dump a 3 year old momma...does she know this dog has a problem? I probably did absolutely NOTHING to answer your question....just some things to think about....
