Honestly, I would wait. It's not just the condition of the puppies that you have to worry about. How do you know that the parents of those puppies don't carry genetic diseases/defects...Even if they are healthy, it doesn't they don't carry the gene for liver shunt or something like that. Maybe I'm paranoid, but I would rather buy from an experienced breeder who knows a lot about her lines. Liver shunt CAN come happen to a reputable breeder too because it's impossible to check for the gene, BUT the difference is that a reputable breeder will stand behind her pups...If your pup gets sick, she's not going to ask for him back just to put him down and give you another one. They will help you through it, in my opinion.
