Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
The Flavor Podcast Network. You're listening to Stacis and Charlie's
Off the Record record.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
Welcome to Off the Record with Stacis and Charlie, where
we bring things here that sometimes a juicy or sometimes
we just forgot to talk about them.

Speaker 1 (00:20):
I want to talk about this and the price of dogs. Bro.
They are so expensive. That's like almost a maybe half
of a down payment on a house.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
No, no, no, they're not that much, or a car
down payment on a house. What sort the houses are
you buying? Now?

Speaker 1 (00:36):
What I'm saying is it's just the dogs are beautiful.
I want to show you, guys what the dogs look like.
What dog are you? Whose dog is there?

Speaker 2 (00:44):
Is this a dog you're thinking of getting?

Speaker 1 (00:46):
No? No, no, not me. My friends are really progsed it,
but had to buy it from Florida. So the dogs
now here, So.

Speaker 3 (00:53):
Its like a dog.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
No, it looks like one of those builder water it's
American purple.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
But they actually looked really cool. That pedigree they come
from their champions over in the States.

Speaker 3 (01:06):
So because he wanted to do what does it have
to be a champion?

Speaker 1 (01:09):
I don't know what what you need to do to
be a champion.

Speaker 4 (01:12):
Or but like, what does he want a champion for? Like,
what's he going to championing?

Speaker 1 (01:16):
He's going to start breeding the dogs here? Yeah, so
obviously he's he was business. It's a business and it's
the thing. And the thing is like a lot of
people do spend a lot of money on it. I
found this quite this is new to me, but apparently
it's been an ongoing thing. So the price that he
bought this dog for was twenty five thousand. This twenty

(01:38):
five thousand USD. But then that's so that's even more
news here. That's almost fifty grand. But that's what I'm saying.
That's almost like half of a I mean, if you
were to convert it twenty five grand us D. So
they had to hold onto the dog until it was
a certain age, and they get all the papers and
all this, and then you got to remember they while
they are looking after the dog, training the dog and

(01:59):
all cetera, they are still paying. So it's like a
like a massive hotel thing that they leave the dogs
in that there to.

Speaker 3 (02:07):
Get them looked after. Quarantine or that quarantine. It's forty
thousand New Zealand.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
You go, yeah, so I have heard about this. You know,
getting a really good you've got to think about show dogs,
even show cats. You know, there are animals that as
such top pedigree, you know, the real big, big what's
it called dophin the dogs. Yeah, yeah, all of those
are the big fluffy ones that look like beers. Those

(02:32):
dogs are so much money, especially if they come from
a champion, champion pedigree pedigree.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
Yeah. So what he was saying was that, bro, I
will make my money back on the litters.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
You know.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
So he's already got a champion female. Just need him home.
I mean the dog from from Florida to come home.
And that's that's there. He's already got the girl for it.

Speaker 4 (02:55):
When he sees that he'll make money for it. Like
how much does the up is?

Speaker 1 (03:00):
Teen minimal team grand a pup. So, but it's not
as easy as we think, like just getting them together. Maintenance,
that's it.

Speaker 3 (03:10):
Relationships are hard.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
So it's like it's a hot it's massive. It's a
process of getting all of this done. But it's a
lot of work.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
It's an interesting business to take take up, in my opinion,
are because not only have you got to do the paperwork,
but then you've got a care for the puppies to
assume there's all these hopes that you've.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
Got to jump through.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
But you know, it is good money, I would assume
by the end of it. But the cost will be
pretty big as well to the puppies.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
And the dogs as maintenance on the dogs.

Speaker 4 (03:39):
That twenty four to seven at all of that you
can't breed in personality, like you want a good personality
in your dog, you know, like you can't be sure
of that.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
Wait, wait, how many? Like how many pups can a
dog have? Like up to ten?

Speaker 2 (03:53):
E Like, yeah, they can, but I mean the thing
is this, his dog could impregnate the female and then
she could tune around and only have two puppies, you know,
and then and then she can't get pregnant again for
another another year. But to me, it's just screams five
that's that's pretty low. Way.

Speaker 3 (04:12):
Well, then she pays for herself, yeah, more on the
first litter.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
Yeah, but then you'd have to make a cut with
the the fe dog, you know.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
But it's.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
That means maybe okay, maybe eighty grand on the pier.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
And all the equipment. Food.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
Oh my, I'm starting to add it up, and you
know what it's it's screaming, when are you going to
go on holiday? You know, if you've got two dogs
that really really, you actually cannot afford for anything to
happen to those dogs. They're not going to live normal
dog lives.

Speaker 4 (04:45):
Yeah, and you're also getting weird about what they're doing,
you know, and trying to make them yeah baby, yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:52):
Or the more I think about it, the more I'm like,
you know what, maybe I don't want to do.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
The breeding price. You say, do you just stand there
and watch them do it?

Speaker 3 (05:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (05:00):
Now I realized that I thought my dog was expensive
at the time. He's like, oh no, he's cheap.

Speaker 3 (05:04):
Okay, you're a good Ziggs Eggs.
