I have a litter right now, and I couldn't imagine a pup being 3/4 oz. I mean...has ANY breeder had a pup that small?!?1? I can't imagine, the health issues that would probably go along with a pup so small....I just can't say I would have confidence in that. I also would NOT take a deposit on a pup that was only a week old. I would say that you can keep in touch, and watch the development, and then MAYBE when the pup is older, BIGGER, and stronger, if you would like to leave a deposit....then make arrangements with the breeder. I just find it VERY hard to believe that their pups are THAT tiny....I mean, 3/4 oz, is nuts. Maybe other more experienced breeders will have a better idea.
