The Glen of Imaal Terrier is not a very popular breed of dog, and so because of that, it will be harder to find a breeder willing to sell a puppy that will not be a show dog. Since this breed is not very popular, a dedicated breeder is going to look to keeping as many of their pups intact as possible to continue on their lines. That means co-owning a dog with the breeder, and/or the breeder only selling to people whom are going to work closely with the breeder to continue the pedigree of the dog. However, if you do find a breeder whom is selling puppies that are not going to be show-quality dogs (ie: pet contract only); you're most likely going to be looking at roughly $2,500.00 - $3,000.00 per puppy. It may be more, it may be less. The price of a puppy is distinguished by the rarity of the breed, the pedigree of the puppies (if they have champion or grand champion lines in them), the amount of work (time, effort, money) has put into raising the litter and where the breeder lives compared to you.

How would the Glen of Imaal Terrier breed do as a drug dog or search and rescue work? I am a Police Officer and I was wondering how the Glen of Imaal Terrier breed would do for sniffing out drugs or search and rescue work?

If you are choosing The Glen of Imaal Terrier for work, I would suggest using the dog in contraband searching. The Glen of Imaal Terrier has an amazing sense of smell and is very loyal to its owner. They are a hardy breed of dog and need a lot of mental and physical stimulation, so a job such as searching for contraband would fulfill the Glen of Imaal Terrier's need for work/walk. Please note that this breed of dog is quite sensitive to their owner's/handler's voice. So you must be firm, but gentle with this dog to train him/her properly. Also, note that this breed matures slower than other terrier's, so he/she must be trained accordingly.
