I agree. Sometimes, there are people who genuinely needed help. For me, when it comes to money donation like someone in the street who asked me a buck or two because they don't have money to pay the fare to go home or for food; I will usually give them a buck or two because I give them the benefit of the doubt..what if the person really needs it? What if the person is already depressed and not getting some money for food, he got so desperate and committed suicide after? The buck or two won't hurt me so sometimes, I do give although if my hubby finds out about this, he would give me a good nag. When it comes to puppy.....that is a whole different story. That is something i do not want to take chances with and that is probably why I never breed my dogs because i will not be able to part with my puppies and I would worry about them all the time even if they had gone to good homes.

Just an idea..maybe in the email you can include that you are giving them a puppy but it comes with a contract to sign as well..something that says to cover the neuter/spay costand to be neuter/spayed before going to their home and puppy must be with them for the next say 3 years in exchange of the free puppy.If they are going to use them for breeding or resell, they would respond differently to this.
