Whew, for a minute there i thought you had taken him home at 6 1/2 weeks.
Yes he should definitely have teeth by 6 weeks. Are you sure that she is being honest about his age. sometimes breeders tell you they are older to make you think they are really small.
If he really is 6 weeks and doesn't have teeth i would fnot take him without a vet check.
Also you need to wait anothe 4 to 6 weeks before taking him home. Yorkies that are taken from their mothers too soon have a lot of issues.
by 10 to 12 weeks he will be eating kibble and will have been socialized by his mother. If the breeder is letting him go sooner then she does not have the best interest of the puppy in mind.
meanwhile, use the time to do more research on the problems connected with taking them too early. hypoclycemia being the biggest one. They can die in their sleep from that. |
