We’re careful about vetting the people we sell to, while we’re not intrusive to an unnecessary degree like some breeders are, if the prospective buyer works ten hours a day and lives in a metropolitan apartment we politely decline the sale. There are breeds well suited to that lifestyle, but working breeds are not among them. It isn’t fair to the dog or the human counterpart as boredom often leads to destructive behavior. Our sire has to be reminded to relax or he will herd the free range chickens to exhaustion. 😎 They need to work!
