I do have strict spay/neuter contracts for pets or will have them spay/neuter before sold if for pet and older. My vet will not spay and neuter young pups - has to do with bone development.
I do get emails for pups. I really hate though the ones that email me and just ask - "Do you have any pups and how much?" I try to not answer these. Sometimes if in the mood I will let them know this is not the way to ask. You need to tell me about yourself first. I do have a waiting list at times, but I only go through the list and weed them out when I have a litter. Yes, I do interview and check references. You have these days.

Don't you just hate those e-mails. I answer them very politely and ask them to contact me by phone. I just feel e-mails don't show an effort or a real desire.
