A good breeder would keep a puppy this young and bottle feed it until it is old enough to start it's vacinations. Someone that "has raised dogs" in the past and care about them should also know this.
Introducing such a young puppy to all kinds of possible illnesses as you have done is inexcusable to me and I will not change my mind.
Who was the breeder you bought him from? They are not good breeders to me. |
You are entitled to your opinions > However, the OP came here for advice and support . Not to be bashed and made to feel like badly. SHe has a very young puppy and needs YT support. It is too late to be telling her what a "good breeder" ought to have done.
I do agree that the new puppy needs to be kept separated from other puppies and dogs until all vaccines are administered . WE all are here to LEARN from each other, and do what is right for our dogs.
To the OP , i hope you wll read the rest of the answers in your thread. Most YTer's do care and will do the best we can to support other members , nicely.
I just brought home a 8 week old Shih Tzu last Tuesday. Suzi my Yorkie, and Miley , are getting to know each other each day little by little , better and better.
I wish you the best .
