Good money in doggies

We had an accidental dog breeding this summer. Maremma LGDs. The bitch had nine pups. At today’s prices on pups, sure makes me wonder about keeping a few females to breed as a bit of a side venture.

Interesting and cute commodity to raise and market! lol

There were a few $20,000 litters of LGDs around here this year. I ended up having to buy a couple more so I bought a potential breeding pair, see what happens in a year or two

Yay. Yet another backyard puppy mill. Trying to sell mongrel pups for $1000 each should be illegal.

Wow.

What if it takes place without even "trying"?

LGD puppies, even accidental, are hardly mongrels. As working dogs raised with livestock they’re worth their weight in gold

It is crazy what people will pay or how far they will travel to buy dogs that aren't even working dogs. Yorkies are like $3000.00

This has become a dog pandemic. As soon as people got locked up, they cracked into the puppy posts on-line. All city neighbours are walking one, two and three dogs past.

My farm neighbour raises goats and sheep and has dogs that look like that, I am no dog expert to verify the breed but those dogs do a fine great job keeping coyotes away from her animals. She also raises Shelties and sells a few batches a year. One of the most interesting stories that I heard this year is of people that are selling kittens. Though the info was third-hand and I haven’t tried it out, I heard some one in nearby village sold a kitten for $400. I guess, why not?

Out of line, LGDs are in demand and short supply. Although I agree the price people are asking for mongrels is ridiculous.
Maremma are fantastic dogs. Don’t expect any fetching though, a complete foreign concept to them.

What's an LGD? Thanx, saves me looking it up.
Hopefully selling them spayed and neutered.
