Ask them about past pets, and how they discipline pets. If they wish to see pictures, send them pictures via-email, but the important thing to remember is you are not selling a dog, you are "placing" a dog. A responsible breeder does everything in their power to insure; that the dogs they have placed will be provided an excellent home and will never need to be rehomed. If I did not feel comfortable having someone to my home, there is no way I would place a puppy in that household. BE CHOOSY!

I totaly agree, I want potential buyers to come to my home. I want them to see parents and surroundings Just because someone sounds nice on the phone does not mean in person that I am going to feel that this is a great place for my puppy to go.
