I know alot of Breeder's that sell them very young @ 6 wks so they appear
smaller for their age w/c they lie about by saying they are older @ 8 wks instead of 6 wks.  |
you know, i always wondered about that. like how do i really know the birthday of my puppy or if she really did get all the appropriate shots, i can only take the breeder's word for it. but i don't think i would recommend the breeder i got milu from. i am lucky milu is healthy and a really good dog, but i don't trust her breeder very much. when i got her, she had ear mites, she was a little smelly and she had a scab on the side of her body(from a bite? the vet wasn't sure but said it was ok)...so i think the breeder didn't take very good care of her.
