I am sorry Agilitygirl, but I REALLY do not think you are 18.

From your post about "a 11 year old" wanting to train dogs, I'd say you're 11. Maybe younger....

There is no use trying to pull the wool over thier eyes, they are too smart for it! I am sorry but I dont remember ToscosMom saying anything like she wanted him... I think I remember her saying "Not my type" but maybe I am imagining things here....

I really dont mean to sound nasty, but you really have to know before you post here that we are a crew of obsessed(or I am atleast) dog lovers, and we dont take selling dogs well -- or putting a cash price on them. Or atleast that explains me.

Sorry if you're getting bashed here, but this thread IS STRANGE! If maybe you could explain better than "i was just wondering'' you'd get nicer replies....

I am off to town, I wont be back for a few hours, but I hope you work everything out.

No, it has nothing to do with 'expertness' You asked a question..and keep asking the question (so I assume you are looking for a more thorough answer) But don't give us more info. Why not..I love to brag about my dogs..there is nothing wrong with it :D

Agilitygirl? I am guessing that English isnt your native language, am I correct?

I still dont think it's right to go asking "how much would you pay for my dog".
It is a very awkward question. Like many have said, you cannot put a value on something that you say "you would never sell"
That would be like me posting a picture of my son and saying "so how much would ya give me for him" Nobody would put up with it.

I also got the impression that the OP wanted everyone to admire her dog and say they'd pay big $$$ because the dog was so great.

To the original poster, if you are reading this thread still . . .

You can't put a dollar value on a dog like you can a car or a house. Your parents spent thousands of dollars on your westie. I got my lab / border collie mix Ebony (RIP) for free. But how much we pay for our dogs isn't important. How can you put a price on puppy sneezes, cuddles, and sloppy doggy kisses from an oversized tongue? How do you appraise the worth of that moment when she first learns "sit" or runs to you with ears flopping when you holler "come!"?

My dog rarely barked but would "talk" to you in strange grumbles--"rawr raaor urrr EEEEEE-oooo!"--and she solemnly buried pancakes in private places after processing slowly around the yard, tail held at a somber angle. We roamed far and wide together, to the pavilion in the park where we shamelessly attached ourselves to the huge family picnics and snuck a hot dog or two for ourselves, and to Hart Field where we ran through the huge flocks of seagulls who settled right back down the moment we passed, and to the small, wild national park that was practically vertical, being down a steep hill, where we would hike all day sharing rations of bottled water and ham sandwiches.

And all those moments added up and made her valuable to me, so valuable, worth more than the smartest dog in the world or the most decorated show dog. No one else could have valued her as much as I did because it was our experiences together that CREATED the value. The love we shared . . . that was what made her priceless.

Everyone knows their dog is the very best in the world, no matter whether it's a purebred or a mutt, large or small, exuberant or shy. That's as it should be. Love your dog, tell us about your dog, share the endearing habits and fun times with us, but leave the dollars and cents behind--what are they but printed bits of paper and dead metal? The things that are truly valuable in life are neither limited nor defined by a price tag.
:hail: :hail: :hail: very nicely said. There is no price you could pay me to give up Gipsy, its as simple as that.

People ask me all the time why I have so many dogs and why I don't "sell" some of them. Why would I sell any of my dogs. I love them all so much. Like someone on here already said, I would not sell any of my dogs if someone offered me a million bucks. You just can't (and shouldn't) try and put a price on your pet.

I know people that always ask how much their dog is worth and then they end up selling it and getting a new one so it doesn't sit well with me when I hear this question.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!

Your puppy is sooooooooooo CUTE!!! Its like worth $1000 dollars or more... or it should be in your eyes since you own him/her.. but seriously.. there is no price for how much you love your dog or how cute he or she is.. unless your considering on selling him.. and you said you weren't so thats good.

Actually, I believe that I offered money first for this dog. My offer of between $750,000 - $950,000 still stands. Take it or leave it, agilitygirl.

Agility Girl also seems to have a problem with ToscasMom's satire.

You really do sound like you're trying to get rid of your dog! Therefore, some of us bashing you is understandable...

If you're 'just wondering' why do you sound so excited that someone sounds as if they want your dog (which I dont think she does)?
Um alrighty then.

Geeze and to think Boston wanted to give me an award for the same thing.

Hey I thought we were offering for Tosca, not the Westie. And I never got an answer about whether she would accept an easy payment plan.

Cash upfront! Before you catch onto her bad habits!
& I offered to steal tosca lol Although Im not sure she would let me steal her!
Ever read that story Ransom of Red Chief? These two crackpots steal a rich guy's kid and the kid is so bad they end up paying the old man to take him back.
