yh@eveezy, buh 25k 4 a gsd might be veri low, atleast if purity is ratd it shuld worth 35-40k

In economics, dere is wat dey call a monopolistic market, dere is a competitive market too, in monopolistic market dere is usually only one seller of a particular product nd d seller fixes price nd buyers ve no say, lyk olumoadebayo is known for malinois nd dere re very few breeders of dt breed here in nigeria, so he culd decide to sell at any price he deems fit or he feels his pups re worthy of, bt in a highly competitive market, where dere re diff sellers of a particular product, price is fixed as a result of competition, so dt one culd mk quick sales, jst lyk d gsds dey re one of d most common breeds in nigeria b4 d boerboels re currently taking ova d market, d price of gsd has bin brought low as a result of sum oda competitors, wen tecno came wit dier new android, dey penetrated d market wit dier price b4 d introduction of sum relatively expensive ones nw. Although dere re sum buyers dt re brand loyal, nd wuld buy a particular product at any cost nd dis is usually as a result of quality jst lyk samsung android fones compared to tecno, tecno is relatively cheap nd cn do wat a samsung cn do bt dere is still diff in quality, so therefore people dt re brand loyal nd lyk quality will buy at an high price, nw concerning dogs, if u dnt ve a high quality dog, u shuldnt expect to sell at an extremely high price because of d prece of competitors, I mean y wuld a sane person buy a dog dt is nt obviosly pure pedigree at dsame price of d pedigree one, he wuld rather go for d pure one, wen fixing price u shuld consider certain tinz lyk 1) purity of d parents 2) purity of pups 3) the certificates the parents hold 3) the complete vacination records 4) quality 5) demand 6) typ of market (weda its highly competitive or nt 7) the appearance nd looks of d pups nd parents temperament 9) the pedigree 10) d target market. Note: all diz tinz I mentioned re tinz I beliv shuld be d way its done, dere culd be oda opinions. In conclusion if there re no proof of d purity of a pup or parent? The price shuldnt be high. Fyn 25k culd be on d low syd, in dis case am sure kuzee considered d target market nd d competitive nature. Lastly any seller has d right to sell his pups at any price he deems fit bt he shuld consider if his product/pups re rily worth dt price, Tecno cannot sell any of dier current fone for d price of 150k, maybe dey mite improve in future tho, bt nw, considering quality? Nope

My boss naso oooo, dem no dey look person face dey do sumtin cos if u look u fit no even achieve anitin, jst lyk I told u den, most people dt critisize ur dogs re breeders, dey use dt method to mk u feel ur dog is of no quality so dey culd get it frm u at a ridiculously low price, well those re common among untrustworthy breeders nd liars, there re still gud breeders around dt will tell u d truth sha, jst dnt respond to criticism, 100percent or nt ur dog is rily great, I once told u dt if u want compare ur dogs wit oda gsds on nairaland nd u wuld see dt urs is among d best. I could rememba wen I wanted to sell one of my semi adult gsd, sum breeders dt were obviously interested bt want me to feel bad nd sell at a ridiculously low price were saying allot of trash, finding faults were there is none, bringing up matters lyk d teeth no complete, tail wasn't touching ground nd sum oda stuff, nd I was jst laffing lyk "see dis guy ooo, shez a puppy na, a semi adult, nd besyds should gsds tail be dwn? My gsd tail touched d ground wen at rest" I jst ignored dem, I found sum oda people dt rily appreciated nd dere was one in particular dt showed lote of interest cos he had to travel frm ilorin to cum pick d dog, d price wasn't dt large bt I was jst api she wuld be wit sumone dt loves nd appreciate her, nd her mother was imported wit all necesary papers altho d father was locally bred bt also gud. So criticisms will always cum, most of dem dt argue hardly knw shit abt dogs

i m seriously laughing hard like a tenacious monkey with all the frivolous parts yuh mentioned..it jux really xo painful i mean very painful i wnt be able to stay long when they give birth again or watch my future pups grow again..plannin to dig a well of dog breeding..hope my plans work out though..nd where in naija can yuh get an 100% pure bred GSD?
whar da range of price for a pup?

Magpies:
yh@eveezy, buh 25k 4 a gsd might be veri low, atleast if purity is ratd it shuld worth 35-40k

it depend on you drew.it a choice...i aint selling it jux to make money....but having alotta dog in yur compound could be dat obdurated nd pernicious ..
since i will soon venture into such biz..might as well consider d price

@eveezy, mst gsds in 9ja aint pedigree cuz dy isnt any kennel club here,nd dy dnt hav pedigree certifikate,nd if dy iz,a pedigree gsd wif hz hipz certifikate nd ofa culd worth 200k per pup,buh well mayb kuzee's dog waz ratd by d purity datz y.

cuz even d gud gsds sold in 9ja are around 35-45k,d dogs kame 4rm germany nd whr veri popular buh stil it waz held in high esteem,nd their gsds are sold between $900-$1200, naw take a luk at hw deir dogs are ratd 2 9jas,nd deirz are all ova deir country

You are missing the point here. There's what they call constructive criticism, it helps you grow and achieve greatness. As a matter of fact, I so much enjoy criticism especially when i'm the victim. It's a way of getting feedback responses on your breeds and it enables you work towards being a better breeder. I criticize a lot too but with a simple reason, I want us to frown on the habit circulating impure breeds. That's one thing that has been affecting Nigerian Cannine Standards and that's why people favor imported dogs over those bred in Naija.

Look at it this way...You sold your pups to innocent Nigerians. Soon the pups will grow to maturity and start producing pups too, Even if you mate that pup with the purest GSD, that doesn't make their offsprings pure. What you just did is adding to the pool of impurities in Nigeria. I don't want you to take this Personal. I started off somewhere too. But it would do you a lot good if you had sold all the pups and probably spent the money on a pure GSD pup, at least you know you have a pure bloodline and you can actually boast of what you have.

@archbay, du u hav a pure or pedigree gsd or those whu hav,nd wat breeds du u hav in store?

I didn't sell any puppy, my dog was pure nd I was sure of that, the mother was imported wit all necessary papers, she was unlyk any oda gsd dt I ve eva seen in 9ja, the father was locally bred bt frm a gud bloodline. And she was a semi adult, I encourage people telling dah truth, bt derez a big difference btw telling dah truth nd tryna mk sumone feel bad abt his dogs, jst so dt u can ve it. Criticism is allowed wen u notice a reasonable truth. Lyk my current male he is kinda fawn in colour, people can decide to critisize cos he is nt lyk d standard black nd tan bt derez an explanation for dt which is pigmentation. But someone saying something lyk teeth is nt complete? Tail is nt always on d ground, wen my gsd is happy d tail is up, it touches d ground only at rest. Fyn we nid to try to improve d breed standard, if anyone wana help he shuld mk use of constructive criticism. I mean a breeder says a dog is nt pure yet he wants to buy it desperately at a cheap price, y use ur moni buy impure tinz u intend using for breeding wen u re trying to improve d gsd standard? Abeg nt all critics re right. Even here on nairaland, sum people jst say lots of trash lyk "bingo" wat breed is s bingo? Dey ve no knowledge of ntin yet dey openly critisize wit confidence

You're right...but notwithstanding, you don't need to pay attention to those critics. Your aim should be to try improve on every breed you have. You and I can make this work. If all breeders think the way I think, then very soon other African countries will sure wanna import from Nigeria.
