I personally would never buy any dog from anyone that wanted my life history, background check, references on me. Not that I have anything to hide, but people who buy puppies are gonna have to pay you johnny on the spot. If they wanted all of that info from me, I would expect in return, a 100% guarantee that I could get my money(cash) back not a replacement dog from the same person as I might get the same thing I got from you in the first place. People, wake up and smell the roses. All buyers are not idiots. People are not buying a house from you and making payments on it. Once a dog is sold, to me, its none of the persons business what I do once it leaves their hands. If people are so worried about what is gonna happen to them, why dont they just keep them so they will know what happens. Personally once I buy a dog, I feel like its my baby and I dont even like the idea of people saying whether you can breed one or not. I mean once something is bought and paid for to me it is my property, meaning, NO LONGER YOURS. This sounds like grandparents trying to tell their kids what they can or cant do with their own children. So people can keep adding all their rules in their contracts and wanting to know your history and soon their will be a lot of breeders and back yard breeders with a house full of dogs if others feel like I do. I feel like its bad business to sell anything and have the right of taking their money and then telling them what to do with what they bought, yet nobody that I know of will give you back your money if the dog is suppose to be a certain size and isnt or a certain color or isnt. the buyer can not guarantee you their gonna always keep this particular dog if their not happy with it, but once purchased, its is theirs whether they like how it turns out or not. I would never throw mine away but its my business if I sell it to someone else or give it away or breed it. So anyone on here dont like the way I feel and want to come down on me for it, put yourself in the buyers shoes for a minute. Are you gonna give me references, and can I do a back ground ck on you and can I tell you if this dog gets bigger than 4, 5, etc lbs or its color ends up being yuck or coat being matty, or not shiny or whatever that you have to give me back my money? NO.
So think about what YOU would expect from a seller if you gave them all that info and get nothing in return of what their selling as a guarantee of your money, other than a health guarantee of no genetic defects and such.
