I am working on a project and i have been having trouble finding out what the individial selling prices for show quality Great Danes are, based on their sex and color. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

There should be no difference in price between a male and a female. Responsible breeders don't charge more for one sex or the other.
Selling price for a show quality Dane depnds on area of the country you are in, bloodlines, breeder reputation, etc. For a harlequin, mantle or blue the price is usually higher because it is harder to get correct color as well as correct conformation. The price for them is most often $1000 and up with it not being at all uncommon for them to be $2000 +
For fawns, brindles & blacks the price is often cheaper...$800 and up. The gene pool for these colors is larger and is noted to have better conformation in many cases.

Depending on the breeder I have seen Danes listed (only purebred Danes from AKC or CKC breeders) between 1,500 and 5,000 dollars - the more expensive one being Harlequins since that is a difficult colour to produce.
Check out this website as it is a conglomeration of Dane and Mastiff breeders and they have some info posted about costs.

Depending on the breeder adn dogs coat color you could be paying anywhere from 6..$-2,000$ +! Ex. A blue or harlequin male with good spots could start you around 1,500 -2,000$ (female 1,000-1,500) A more common color like black could start you at lower lower range. There are a lot of factors that come into pricing though so you may find quite a variation. One breeder may be selling a black pup for 750$ and another for 2,500$. it all depends on their blood lines, the dogs person attributes (some dogs come from show parents and just aren't cut out to be show dogs), and even the breeders preferance. hope that helps a little.

Genetically it is possible, but the darn dog would need a step ladder. I did a search after I read your question and this question has been asked numerous times. The answer is always yes, but I have yet to see a picture of one or hear of it happening. I suppose the Great Dane would have to literally sit or lay down...and the Chihuahua would need some HIGH HOPES! I am trying to picture the puppies. If it can be done...we will eventually see it.

There is no set selling price for any breed of dog. There are too many factors that will come into play. The dog's pedegree, the area of the country and the interest in the breed to name a few. If the puppy comes from a long line of Champions, the price will reflect that.

A lot depends on where you are and who you know. You can get retired Champions for free from some breeders, providing they are spayed/neutered. A good breeder is concerned where their dogs go. I'm sure you can buy dogs off Puppyfind.com or nextdaypets.com. They'll tell you "show quality", but that's debateable.

Hmm...Go to http://www.nextdaypets.com/directory/dogs/breeders/1100130/ and look at some of the breeder websites....
You could look at the prices for each puppy that they have for sale...But you need to make sure that they specify that the puppies are champion sired.
That is what I would do for a research paper to look for prices of champion quality dogs by color and gender.

It really depends on where you are and the quality of the bloodlines.
