For the good of the puppies, I usually don't allow future families into the home until they've had their first set of shots. For the first 8 weeks of their life they shouldn't be overhandled.
Even if you know your coworks and friends, the tendancy to want to pick up, handle and cuddle these guys is irristable.....and at the age your puppies are the risk of hyperglycemia is there.
When allowing them into your home, make sure they take off their shoes, sanitize their hands, make sure they sit on the floor in a designated area of the house. Be cognisant of your dam's feelings. She can get stressed with strangers around, touching her pups.
