They dont seem to care about a health guarantee or the fact that I am an experienced breeder. They just want a dog like Brittney Spears or the Hilton bimbo and for a CHEAP, next to nothing price.

This is not the DOLLAR STORE folks nor is a dog an accessory!! Most of the calls I get are from teenagers.

Great homes are sometimes hard to find. Just got to be patient.
I can totally relate to all of that. One other thing that gets me is that when I ask if they are interested in breeding they say no but as soon as I tell them registration is limited they loose interest fast or they say 'well, I might want to breed later'.

Or when you ask if they have small children, then there is a long silence and they say no. I have had some when I ask them if they work and they say no and later in the conversation they slip up and I find out that they do work. Why can people just be honest. Just because they have children or work does not necessarily eliminate them but it help us to honestly access if we have a puppy suitable for their situation.
