My policy is to request that they hold off until 18 months.  When the bitch 
comes in season during that time, I board her for free.  This has worked 
well for me.  Also, the pups are sold on limited registration annnnnnnd I 
make sure they pay enough for a dog that so they want to take care of 
it.  I as well as others ask questions, but more than that, it is important 
what the people do and how they and their children act around me.
