I dont think that it is bad to purchase the runt & w/proper care I think they can be very healthy happy pets. I dont think they should do some of the things they do to try to keep the weight down on pups to get more money, not saying that breeder does but those who might. I kinda think of it like this, I had a 9lb baby & you had a 5lb, if neither of us smoked, we both took our vitamins & ate right, we both had healthy babies just different sizes but if you didnt nurish your body like you should have then your baby may have problems. If the breeder is feeding good food & vitamins, taking care of mom then all pups should be healthy, the little one may need extra care since it might get pushed off by sibblings & miss a needed meal. Am I making scense? I dont breed, but I am thinking about it after all the bad experience I've witnessed & all the scams I've seen-we need some good breeders. Good luck.

you are SO right about proper nutrition for puppies .. i think many of the illnesses are related to poor diet. especially the first 6 months
