Sherry,
I think it's great that you insist on people being informed before getting a SG. The breeder I got mine from spent a lot of time talking to me about why I wanted her and even had me read a particular book - the other side is that I've been in pet stores here in Austin and seen store workers pick them up by their tails :0 and throw them way high in the air and sell them to people like they are toys and not little creatures to be loved. That makes me really sad...so I'm glad to know about people who DO take time to find great homes for their babies!
