Thank you for all the answers about my puppies teeth. This lady had already taken the puppy off his mother at 4 weeks. She said that they start snapping at them at that time and she does that for their protection. She had already sold his siblings and I imagine he was still left because he doesn't have teeth. She would have let me take him at 6 1/2 weeks but I didn't feel that it was fair to bring him home and then go on vacation and leave him with someone else new. I don't want to stress him more than I have too. However, I now feel bad about leaving him there since his littermates are gone and he doesn't have his mother either. He will be almost 9 weeks old when I am able to pick him up. He is being kept inside in a baby playpen at her house. What kind of problems will he have since he was taken from his mom so young? I want to be as prepared as possible for anything that might happen with him after I get him home.
