My baby was approx 8 weeks - In the UK apparently many people think this is ok for them to be sold at this age, many of the breeders that want fast-sales (some sell at 6 weeks which I think is ridiculous). She was fully weaned and eating hard food at this age - as soon as she came home she dived into a pack of puppy biccies. She never wimpered or cried the first night - I think she was quite glad to get away from the busy household (the 'breeder' had saeveral large dogs running in the house -they knocked over the pups lots of times because I saw it happen when I was there) - she fell straight to sleep and never murmered at all. She stunk rotten though - bathtime!!! xXx
