The Ruling on Selling Trained Dogs

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Some people sell trained dogs, claiming that they spent their money and time in the process of training them. Does this fall under the prohibition of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding the price of a dog?

Answer:
A dog is not to be sold under any circumstances, whether it is trained or untrained. The narration in al-Nasa'i:
Except for a hunting dogإلا كلب الصيد
is weak. The Messenger of Allah prohibited the sale of dogs, and their price is inherently corrupt in all cases, whether trained or untrained.
