Alot of working people cant afford 5k . But when the crowd that school with fimd out that ypu want to hook a nice one that they have seen, the money gets.high and then you can go into the same. In my opinion i think thats why when you go into people that go into the deep water thats why thee money might get high .havent read all the post ,so sory if i wrote the same thing as someone else. Also having people back you should be a compliment to.you and your hound. And it will improve your yard. Because you will travel to other stateswih people that also have backing (quality stock). Ps i will do it for dog food lol.
