If, for some reason you cannot physically see the puppies, I'd be very cautious. You need to see how they react with you. Do you like a mellow, loving puppy or the more rambunctious baby? I searched for 6 months for my Jezebel & what I saw out there was amazing. I can't tell you how many homes that I have walked away from. I saw Yorkies with a wire hair coat (NOT!). I did see some beautiful puppies living in disgusting conditions & had never been handled, so you’ll have a shivering, cowering mess. You never know, you can be purchasing a puppy mill dog.
I suggest you go local. It can even be advertised as family raised, but when you react with the puppy, you can see if it has been socialized. They can take the litter from the puppy mill, bring them to their home & say, "Family Raised". A socialized puppy will interact with you, where one that is not & the puppy is bred just for the $ & the dog is not maintained, handled, trained, or loved. I have beautiful babies that I tend to 24/7. They are well adjusted & so loved. Many call me back to purchase another baby. Just be careful buying sight unseen & no interaction. You never know what you are going to get!
Looking at the photos, ... #2 for sure!
