As I stated, I understood why she asks that particular question, but I feel she had no right to, thus I went with a different breeder I felt comfortable with and she went with a different buyer who had no problem answering questions which I find extremely private. No loss on either end. Not all reputable breeders ask what you plan on doing with your ovaries within the next year or two. |
I'd find that kind of question highly intrusive and offensive, too. In a job interview it wouldn't be allowed and would be discriminatory.
And let's face it, life happens, and people's circumstances change. Nobody ever really knows anybody. You sell to someone who seems great and they hook up with a jackass. An older couple seem nice, but you don't know about the druggie daughter and her hellion kids who are going to move in with them two years down the road.
I'm not one for jumping through hoops. If I have cash, want to buy and one breeder won't sell...so what...on to the next one.
