My problem with these post is that I need to let you and everyone know THIS IS NOT MY JOB. k? this is my hobby and I dont take it lightly.
LOL I already made that point in another post. This is not my Job? It is a hobby. And a hobby I dearly love doing. And like you no one is going to call me rude because if I do respond I am never rude. I always am polite with my response. I too do not answer the two word or one liner emails. And I can usually tell a persons interest by the first words out of their mouth over the phone. LOL
I would like to add another thought to this thread about the potential dangers of breeding and selling puppies. I am alone about 50% of the time 24 hours a day seven days a week. My hubby travels a lot. So I must be very very careful about responding with too much information OR allowing someone to come over to visit the puppies. I have had several breeder friends who were robbed. If not out right then the person returned later because they had already "cased the joint". And a few years ago there was a woman who was killed and robbed of her baby. Remember she was preganant and the woman cut her and stole her baby. This meeting of two people occured over the internet in a forum just like this one!! In fact it was persons in the forum who aided the police in identifing the killer. The killer went to the house on the pretense of looking at puppies!! Sorry this is off subject but I just wanted to bring it up so other breeders could become more aware if you are not already taking extra care. As for me.....well I could lay here dead for several days and no one but the Yorkies would know. It's scary sometimes. I know I know....this has little to do with answering email and phone calls. But Yorkies are in great demand. It never hurts to be extra careful.
