best price for bh and sch titles - Page 1

please can someone tell me the best price for a bh title alone and then for sch 1 title. is there discounts for mutli dogs. what is the cost for? the training or the actual title, handler or what. is it less if i get it myself with an already trained dog. what are the requirments for bh only

Hi tcall36917 There are alot of factors to consider when it comes down to the price of the dog. First of all this dog may only have a BH title because its just wanted as a family pet maybe a sch 1 or 2 but nothing near competition level. On the other hand buying a young working dog with lots of potential but he only has a BH is going to be worth lots more money. Because he maybe capable of getting SCHH3 and going on to competition. To buy a SCHH3 dog outright its going to be quite costly as any titled dogs cost. But as far as your concerned the BH title and Schutzhund 1 title has two different meanings. A dog with talent and potential and a dog without just looking for a pet home or club level sport. Thanks Laughter

One breeder I have been in contact with is willing to sell me a female SchH1, FH1 for 2000EUR...Thats the ONLY price I have recieved so far I am also looking around for prices(dont know if that is a good price or not). Also one breeder told me a member at her club had recently sold his BH tilted dog to a police offcer for 1500EUR. I was originally gonna get a male pup, but this is my first time at the sport so several breeders told me I should get a Sch1 female for "me" to learn how to work the dogs. Hope this helps!

If I were you, I would take some time & learn about the sport before buying a dog. Go to clubs, research on the net. Talk to different breeders & trainers in person. Get some of the books about the sport. Learn exactly what is involved, & go to some trials. This way, you can get a good idea of what you want & what your commitment level will be. I have seen people excited about the sport, so they go out & buy a titled dog without having learned what is involved. Many times this sets people up for failure because they haven't a clue how to handle the dog, & the dog has no respect for this person.

I think tcall is asking about the price of titling a dog. The way I'm reading that post is that the person is considering the option of getting a non-titled dog and then paying to have them titled versus buying a dog that has already been trained. No?

ANYBODY KNOW WHO HAVE A DOG WORKING LINE OF GRAFENTALS LINE IN CALIFORNIA OR ANOTHER PART?????????????

julio15, WHY DO YOU NEED TO HIGHJACK SOMEBODY ELSES THREAD? ARE YOU THAT SELF IMPORTANT? WHY CANT YOU CLICK ON "POST A NEW MESSAGE" LINK AND CREATE YOUR OWN REQUEST?????????????????????????????

julio15, On top of what Brittany said, how can you even ask that question when right now you are trying to sell off the mom and her pups that are not even old enough to go any where!! Do you plan on doing the same thing again. That just makes me SICK!!!!

I charge for training and titling/showing/getting breed surveys by the month + expenses (travel, show handler if necessary, vet expenses if necessary, etc.) The first 2-4 weeks are an evaluation period, a chance for myself to bond with the dog and for the helpers and I to evaluate the potential of the dog, after which time I will either keep the dog to continue in training for titles or send the dog home Average time it takes me to train a completely untrained dog to BH, AD & SchH1, working protection 2-3 times per week is 4 mos., but some dogs take longer. I have put the SchH1, 2, AD, Show rating and Breed Survey on a dog in less than two mos., but only because I was pressured by my ex to rush the dog to get those titles in time for that year's Sieger Show and it was our dog. The dog was trained in all three phases nearly every day: too much pressure for a young show line dog. I was dissatified with the results as I did not have time to put the foundation training in that that young male dog needed. If I had been training that dog for a customer I would have advised we "lay off" for a few weeks between the 1 and the 2, sending him home with instructions to keep him away from any training fields, play ball, go for walks in the country, swim to keep up his conditioning, and let him "grow up" some... before going back to work. As it was we ruined that beautiful young dog an Ulk Arlet son, SG1 in the 18-24 mos class in the SW Regional Show, by rushing him. He ended up failing protection at the Sieger Show in Texas, coming off the sleeve before the fight was over. It was a lesson hard-learned but one I will never forget! Hope this helps.
