Have heard them all, sadly I am almost immune to the excuses.
The one that always gets to me are the people who want a young dog because they do not want to out live their dog. Seriously people, you are YOUNG and your life expectancy is much longer than a dog!!! Those are the people I usually decline for adoption, that is one sure sign they have no clue about what they are getting into.
I have a huge soft spot for the senior dogs (and people), probably the reason I usually end up fostering or loving every old dog at our rescue.
