Quite a while back a friend of ours whose parents are breeders accidently got two of their dogs in the same area (keeping them apart because the female was in heat and younger than they wanted to breed her) and by the time they knew it was too late. Thankfully, since they wanted to hold off on the breeding, they were relieved to find out she didn't end up getting pregnant. But they tell me that with the quality of the two dogs, which they were planning on breeding later anyway, if she'd gotten pregnant than the puppies would have been anywhere from $500 to $2000 each dependant on the quality of the pups. Is this true? They're purebred German Shorthairs, btw, show dogs with all the paperwork. It just amazes me to think "oops, looks like there'll be a litter of $2000 puppies!"
