The Cavalier breeders let them go at 10 weeks.
So i would think 10 weeks would be best. Some breeders want to let them go as soon as the mom quits the clean up duty but thats not the only job the mom has, she teaches them socialization and the littermates also play a part in forming their personalities.
So I would say 10 weeks would be good just please don't let them go at 6 weeks. Some states say 8 weeks is the youngest.
