Anyone that is not willing to tell how many litters her bitch has had is probably trying to hide something. If the breeder is a good breeder he/she would not have a problem answering that question. If the breeder is letting the puppy go at 9 weeks, she is not a very good breeder either. Most toy breeders keep the puppies until they are 12 weeks or older. You should also be asking about health checks for the puppy, and what kind of health guarantee the breeder will give. I would ask to see the female and male if the breeder owns both, or at least the female and the pedigree of both. |
