Which is sad.
This is why some breeders will Not sell to those with kids PERIOD.
And It hurt those who do have well behaved kids that have been taught to respect all living things.

As, breeders you try to place your pup in the best possible home but sometimes it doesn't always work out that way.
I've been cussed before because I refused to sell to someone after I found out they lied.

I've known of other breeder who refused to place a pup with someone and that person would get someone else to try to purchase the dog for them.

Checking out homes would be fine if the home is close enough to you but there are time when the dog goes to another state and checking out the home is just not possible.
At those times you just have to go with your gut feeling.
They can also give you fake address and meet you at a friends home. Con artists are good at what they do.

I recently talked to a breeder who bred greyhounds. One of her puppies was turned over to a shelter a molnth after she sold it. they paid $600 for the dog than gave it to the shelter. I am now considering microchipping my puppies.
