How much can I sell my pit bull puppies for if they are not registered?

The mom and dad are both full blood American Pit Bull Terriers but they have no papers. I dont know what price to ask for these pups when they are old enough to sell. I will be providing first shots/exams for the pups. Any one know?

1. I have a man in my area who sells his unregistered pit bull puppies for $100 but some people may sell for more $$$...
2. how much do they charge at the local shelter? maybe 50-100... some dumbas$es will be stupid enough to buy it for a larger price but please dont fool them being pure breed means nothing giving first exam and shots also means nothing
3. I hope you get zero dollars. Dogs are living things, not the answer to fill your checking account. How can you even live with yourself, bringing more dogs in to the world when over 6 million healthy dogs and cats are getting euthanized due to lack of homes? You are despicable.
4. ? Dont you know that there are pits in the shelter right now in need of homes and are possibly on pending euthanasia ? They sell them for about $50 to $100 . The maximum you can sell them is for $100 ...
5. with all the media on pitts I hope you get nothing. Surely you have not taken their well being into consideration. If you had you would have had your dog fixed. I can almost promise you that some of these pups will end up in the pound one day on death row,.....very sad that you have just contributed to the death of more dogs.
6. i say $100.
7. I would charge $100. This is because you want to make sure that people can afford to own the puppies and aren't just picking them up because they are free... and then drop them when they cost money. (I would say "free" because there's no reason to sell a puppy with no papers and no proof of what his heritage is for more than that. But if you give away pit bull puppies, then you get the sickos who will pick them up and put them in the dog fighting ring.) Be sure to screen your buyers, because otherwise those little puppies are going to get put in the pound once their owners get sick of them... and once a pit bull is in the pound, there is no hope for them. I can promise you, that little puppy will be euthanized if it ever goes near the pound. This is because of all the media, etc on pit bulls. There's nothing you can do about it. Get addresses, phone numbers from the buyers, and offer to take the puppies back if the owners ever don't want them anymore. Otherwise, you're pretty much sentencing those puppies to death. Not trying to get on a soapbox, or make you feel bad, but don't breed these dogs in the future. Get them spayed and neutered. There is no world out there for un-papered pit bulls, and very little of a world for even papered ones. And when you've got an un-neutered male running around, he's going to make little half-pit puppies, that are going end up dead because of their breed status. Or end up hurting people, if the puppies get raised wrong. I wouldn't want the responsibility of the death of puppies on my shoulders. And that's the reality of most unpapered pit bull puppies. Death. I wish you luck with this litter, but really, try and be responsible and spay and neuter those dogs. The world will be a happier place for everyone. And everyone makes a difference.
8. Why don't you visit the animal shelter and see how much their pits are going for? Oh wait. They will tell you that virtually no one adopts pits. They pretty much all get killed. There are too many. Look in the newspaper to see what people are asking. Oh wait, there are over a dozen ads, so what are your chances of selling all of yours? Too many backyard, irresponsible breeders. Get your dogs fixed asap and never breed again. Please! Dogs are not income producers; they are living, breathing animals that need good homes.
9. Great another backyard breeder making a dollar off of pit bull puppies. I hope the money you make is used to spay and neuter your dogs. The last thing this world needs is pit bull puppies who will probably end up like Mike Vic ks dogs. I hop you can sleep at night knowing that YOU contributed to the cruel treatment of innocent dogs!
10. I wouldn't pay anything. Why pay for an unregistered dog, when I can get one for next to nothing in the shelter? The sire and dam may be full blooded, but, if you can't prove that, it's useless.
11. Check out the people you sell the pups to, to make sure they're good pet owners who will raise the pups correctly. And please, for the sake of all the unwanted dogs stuck in shelters all over America, spay the parents! Save them from health problems in the future by spaying them now.
12. You are an Idiot.
13. You are asking the wrong question!!!! I can't believe this. You should be more concerned about whom you are giving your pups to. If you find a nice family who is able to afford a dog and provide him/her with a nice life, then you are lucky. Please set your priorities straight!!
