I have a 15" strong male dog that has been fixed. I'm gonna move him just for the simple fact that I'm picky, Im overwhelmed with dogs and he's the biggest dog I have.
How much would he be worth? He's a $500 dog. Registered Branko dog. Nice honest clean mouth, hunts, jumps and runs the track right. Just want to hear some different opinions here before I put him up for sale.

Re: QUESTION ON NEUTERED MALE
Sounds like he would make a good hunting hound for the next several years. I would think you could get 400 for him anyways. It seems that a good running hound will bring that much, and honestly speaking, most hunters, myself included, by pups or running hounds and do not breed. Of course, he will sell quicker in 4 or 5 months.

As Remmy mentioned there's a whole lot of beaglers out there that have no interest in breeding dogs and/or raising pups.They just want a good,solid hunting companion to enjoy with as few faults as possible.
If your hound can account for his game running solo,will pack up and do his share of the work in a pack,runs rabbit and only rabbit [especially if others are trashing ],likes the gun,handles decent in the woods and is not an idiot in the kennel then I would say you should easily get your $500.00 back for him and maybe more.
The fact that he's neutered shouldn't bother someone just wanting a gundog.I've got a friend that's kept beagles for 20+ years and he neuters them all as he has no interest in breeding or their heat cycles.They perform just as well as mine that aren't.
Lot of folks around here ride horses.Not many stallions,most ride geldings.

Re: QUESTION ON NEUTERED MALE
Ron if you are reading this my PMs are staying in my outbox for some reason..??? I'll post what his sire and darn is this evening. All I have is a paper slip, no pedigree. I ordered him from out of state and I don't have any 15" dogs, which is why im selling him. Hes a touch bigger and Im overwhelmed with dogs at the moment.
