Breeders,

I have a question that I have actually been thinking about for a long time. If a person comes to you that is way way up in age ande wants to buy a puppy, do you hesitate? I bring up this question because my grandma who is in poor health and is 78 (and who dislikes Stewie btw) wants to adopt a "lap dog" to keep her company.

I know that I probably would hesitate. If a person is 80 or more (or any age you deem appropriate), I know that I probably wouldn't adopt them one of my puppies. Only because I know that the dog would likely outlive them. And I've had experiences in my own family and friends of my family where the pet goes to the shelter when the owner can no longer properly care for it. We can't always rely on children and grandchildren to take responsibility for the pet when they have to. I know I wouldn't take in my grandmother's dog. No offense to the potential dog or her, but I wouldn't feel obligated.

I know this is a somewhat controversial question, but I really have a legitimate curiosity about feelings out there.
