The Secrets to Selling a Dog Online

#1. get a puppy off of one of the hottest studs. the one stud that has the message board buzzing and has some dogs currently doing some winning in the hunts.

#2. now this might be most important, when you go to sell the dog, dont actually put it up for sale.
this might have you some fo you confused. the key is to start bragging the dog up about how good it is coming along in training. with each post sell us on how greatly it is progressing and how special the pup is.

3. next have some buddies come on and brag the dog up. have them post how yourpup put it on the old grand nite last night and even split treed with the meat while the other dogs were treed slick. have them make up a couple of screen names and you do the same so the hype just gets bigger and bigger.

4.pictures. you must have some pictures. doesnt matter where you take them, just as long as it is at night and the dog is barking up a tree. heck, do with a caged coon in the front yard if need be.

5. next, state the dog is not for sale

6. now state after recieving numerous inquries about buying this dog through the pm system, you have decided that the dog isnt for sale but can be bought.

7. slap an outragous overpriced tag on the dog and wait for the offers to roll in.

just a little light hearted fun

Nobody specific. It just never ceases to amaze me the volume of indiscriminate peddling that goes on with hounds.

One guy had TB write an ad for him in the cooner to try and sell his dog.
When the mag. came the fella read the ad over and over and finally told his wife that dog was what he had been looking for his whole life, no way was he gonna sell him now.

Honestly Joe, if it was anyone else besides you, Chris, and a couple others that I know who are familiar with those dogs, they would have never got their hands on him. It is important to me that the dog finds as much pleasure with his new home as the owner finds pleasure in the dog. I think it was a perfect fit and thats why you got him. You got accurate reports on the dog from multiple sources and agreed based on our word, thanks for trusting me. The day I have to blow a dog up to sell him is the day I realize that the dog ain't worth being sold in the first place. I don't try to live off the dogs. If one has to go it isn't because I'm in a financial pinch. And once I decide they have to go, they go. In this case, it was right on time for us both. I leave tomorrow night. Alivia asked me if we were taking Thrill and that Rudy pup with us when we move. I told her no, I'm sending Thrill to Joe's. She glared at me and started this growling/snort kinda thing as she doubled up her fists. I realized that I was in danger of great bodily harm administered by a 7 year old so I told her that I was joking. She didn't think it was too funny.

I was at the _KC world hunt one year and sat and listened to TB and another guy write an ad for the books. He said remember to always put "come and hunt with him". He said the more you invite people to hunt with the dog the less they will come to hunt with the dog.

My favorite is they want less off the chain. ?????
Another one is the price swings. One day one price. Next day the price went up. next back down. Then they'll post if they don't sell it off the board they'll sell it at a big hunt because the people at the hunt know coon dogs. That makes me bust a gut. Guess we don't know nothing because we're on this board. But wait, I'm also going to be at that hunt. ROFLMAO.

I like the guys who say that if someone doesn't buy it at xxxx price, they will hunt him some more and the price will go up. Get a clue yo-yo's, if nobody wanted it at a "bargain", they sure as heck ain't going to dish out some more for him 30 days from now.

I always like the sales pitch of "If she doesnt sell by next week I am going to breed her to so and so and sell the pups for xxx"
