I would allow my vet to answer questions to a buyer (who had put a deposit on a pup) but not accompany me. But, once his pup had been picked and he wanted me to accompany him to a pup check of his own puppy, I would do that. (but only have done that 1 time in over 40 years) A dictatorial approach with me right off the bat would not take flight.

Huge congrats to all involved! I have a question for you breeders out there. Have you ever had a prospective puppy buyer insist on accompaning you to the first vet check for a litter of your pups? This guy is telling me it is a 'condition' of his buying a pup. So I told him, I will not be held hostage to his conditions and wished him luck finding another pup. I find this strange and in 30 years no one has made this demand of me. I ask, is this normal and would you guys ever allow this? Maybe it's me...........thanks for listening and I welcome your responses. Cheryl/Tindrock
