Lassie Rockets to £7,600 World Record Price Sheep Dog Pup
Four five-figure sales to a top of £13,800 for fully broken dogs, plus a new world record price of £7,600 for an unbroken puppy just turned nine-weeks-old, were recorded at Skipton Auction Mart’s latest two-day timed online working sheep dog sale this week. (Tues & Wed, May 18 & 19)
Setting the world record price for a pup achieved an official sale was Welshman Glynne Jones, of Pentir, near Bangor in Gwynedd, with his March 12-born Pentir Lassie, an unusually lilac coloured bitch, which smashed the previous record of £6,100 established at Skipton’s previous online sale in January for an 11-week- old black and white bitch, Bet, from another well-known Welshman David Evans, who also clinched £13,800 top call at the latest renewal.
